Flurry NOT proccing off of a Double Attack - Page 2

It's procing off your original attack for that round. It's not one or the other... both flurry and double attack can proc off of the normal attack.

i just noticed, that you can very well have double-flurries. i guess in combat spam, the lines get sorted to dont like like they did, but if you check the numbers above the mobs heads, youl eventually see stuff like this:

notice theres still only a couple of actual damage numbers... that's because although my crushing skill is at ~500 (dirge in grp), i hit like shit

okay those are obviously not the clearest screenshots, but i guess you can see what i mean. i was carefully watching the numbers on some pre-switchmaster annoy-mob and hit printscreen as soon as i saw a double-flurry

also, no comments about my hotbars please, i got used to them. :D
im wondering why theres still shield ally and sacrifice in my hotbar... i dont even have these specced anymore

also: please dont ask why i got tandem... no idea, but some illy obviously decided it was a good idea to give a healer tandem for switchmaster *shrug*

I'm afraid that's not a confirmation of much. Combat bubbles are linked, at best, to your character's melee animation; at worst, somewhat delayed even more. Normal slow attacks will often get pushed back in queues and not display immediately. Sometimes double/multi attacks can force portions of the queue to be pushed out immediately.

Though I guess it does satisfy the one requirement Pinski requested, I'd prefer timestamped log lines.

But double attacks won't proc flurries and flurries won't proc double attacks. The latter thought is in fact ludicrous. But it should tell you why the former thought is not true either. Essentially it follows the idea that, procs don't proc procs.

It in fact seems oddly impossible for you to even flurry after a double attack to give that illusion. The flurry check seems to come first in static order.

I have had a few parses with 10 auto attacks in one auto attack round before I de-acted a few weeks ago. And have noticed many times during the beginning of the expansion that I had more than 6 attacks in one round. Though last time I actually looked was in January(Last time I actually raided on the toon).

Had multiple times of 80-85k in one auto attack round with the lava wrought, which is about 8-10 hits. The only reason I know I had that many in one round is because we went and looked why I was yanking aggro sometimes. (Weak tank, but meh)

EDIT: I canna type tonight
