Default Increasing DPS

Hello all.
I'd like to know how to get my DPS up a bit
I have pretty decent gear, raid T8 (only started VP recently though)
am almost fully mastered, but still only get about 2-2,5 K max per encounter

Anyone could give me some ideas about ideal sequence of CA's i should use, cause i'm not very knowledgeable about that.

2-2.5K in which zones against which mobs? That's actually not that bad depending on your gear and group setup. To hit 3K+ you're going to need a decent or better 2H, and the right group buffs as well. Without enough DPS mod it's pretty hard to get to 3K+. A coercer in group giving you some DPS mod love will double the autoattack damage of your melee weapon and instead of topping out at just over 6K crits you'll top out up around 9K-10K+.

Yeah of course it depends on target and group.
With Coercer, inquisitor, dirge etc in group my damage is mucho better, but even then i rarely hit morethen 2,5 k
I'm probably doing something wrong, and don't really look much at cast order, so thought that would maybe do something.
My 2-hander is not so great, legendary spear from Chelsith.
Which 2-hander would be best from T1 upto T3 raids in ROK (and the 2 first nameds in VP) ?

The 2H from the Analphylaxis quest would be better than that spear from Chelsith probably. You need something with a wide damage spread and a large 5 to 6 second delay. Casting order at that point won't matter as much as using CAs and spells between your autoattack swings. Focus on DA and melee crit gear more so than spell crit. They will increase your damage much more than spell crit will. Try to get your haste and DPS mod as close to 125 or more as possible. At 125 diminishing returns will kick in pretty hard.

With a 1H you're usually going to be in the 2 to 2.5K range against VP trash, slightly higher against T1-T3 encounters. With a 2H I see around 2.5K to 4.2K against T1-T3 trash and around 2.2K to 3.4K against VP trash. This is with a bard + coercer in group with me getting DPS mod from coercer. My melee crit is around 60%, DA around 37%, DPS mod around 130-150 without temp procs, and haste between 60ish and 120ish as temp buffs go up and down.

Bonecrusher is the best. Anaphalaxis reward does more DPS than the other 2 from what ive seen.

Yeah sorry, if you're not able to get to Milyex in VP, Bonecrusher is probably the best of the other options.
