Swash DPS - LU52

Venser · 06-18-2009, 01:03 AM

I don't have the chances to play the game at this time, or maybe any time soon. BUT, I am curious on how the LU has effected our DPS, since i cant play the game idk how it is so :P. simply put, good or bad? .

Doesn't seem our raid dps has improved or diminished, at least compared to a wizard. Our raiding Ass resigned to another class, so no idea how well our dps compares to them.

aight, so in other words, at least from one other opinion (yours) we're still the same ol' Swashy, meh , im ok with that, lol

I haven't been raiding full time on my Swash, but when I have been on him, I seemed, if anything, to see a DPS increase. Between COB and Insight (or whatever the hell they want to call it now) critting based on MC, the very slight loss in item proc DPS is completely negated. We're certainly in a lot better shape than many classes are, compared to where they were 3 days ago. But I believe that was a much needed rebalance. Our Enchanters and Shadowknight are no longer topping our parses, and that's kind of okay with me.

Pros: Inspired Daring now bases it's crit off of melee crit, not spell crit.
Cons: Procs cannot be modified by spell crit or base damage anymore.

All in all, depends on what kinda gear you had relating to how badly this update hurts your dps. Anashti charm used to crit for 5-6k, now it hits for the static 2,500. For me, short term dps got a small boost, long term dps dropped slightly. Nothing major either way but I saw an increase on trash parses/first couple named in ToMC. Longer fights was a little lower.

You didn't like see mages parsing 85-90k on mynzak floor trap? And 12-17k of their DPS being the AoFlame charm? That was totally balanced. /sarcasm off

CoB, Crypt's Revenge and Inspired Daring is now a melee attack.

You should do higher DPS now than Pre-LU52.
