Edit - Also, I'm somewhat confused about what is being done. Is the new "thing" to spec fireshape and iceshape, drop iceshape/VG one fight, and drop fireshape/FoR the next?

Depends on how long your fights last tbh, personally it depends on where we are, if killing real fast then alternate the 2 as suggested, if killing slower aka bout 1 min+ you can use both in one fight, as soon as gift ends drop furnace then cast surge of ro/fireshape.

what void bane items are you using, and how much stronger does that "increases void bane" effect give. Seems good if your parsing on voids atleast.

Nice fomka. Void bane looks like its parsing well. Interesting.

Perm I would just read back, looking over parses and compare them to your own. The ExtDPS number is just the beginning. Like I see you cast Ball of the same amount of times you hit magma chamber. Ball should be way higher.
And just plan ahead, like if you Jcap the first mob and fission, you can then (if specced ) MB the 2nd, fission the 3rd (and i mean hit all three of those mobs with fission every time. cast it quick,after the run-in) and then have fission up again for the group. Should yeild you 2-3 more fissions easily. Stuff like that. And exo more like said, dont worry about electron storm unless theres like 6+ mobs....etc.

I have 3 items atm - charm from obelisk, cloak from varsoon and ring with 5% base damage from Ferzhul. The increase isn't that great, but these items proc a lot (wtb templar in group).

Yeah, I normally cast exo more - but it was PR, so just on the adventuring party while the frogs are up - everything else was pretty much single target stuff. I don't have MB spec'd ATM cause I can't say I will always have an illy (or even a mystic) and that just leaves me with no power and 22 wasted AA's.

Yeah, I have my spells macro'd in order and for some reason Ball was after Chamber and I don't know how that happened.

Thanks for the advice.

Aye, mess around with your spell order until you find what best suits you. If you have to, redo all of those macros and redo them with better spell combos. With the right spell order, though, you should be topping out quite a bit more.

The first 4 names you should be doin some solar wind and exo quite a bit until those adds start to die.

And even after the frogs die in the adventure group theres still like 3 mobs. And thats all I noticed from your parse, seemed like you were doing a lot of single target dps for a fairly group heavy zone. 5/7 encounters are good for some aoe dps to get the most out of it.

Perm · 12-25-2008, 11:07 PM

Maybe macro is the wrong word - the spells are hotbar'd in order.

It was always impressed on me to burn the heirophant down fast so I never thought about AE'ing the skellys.

I'll post a better parse with a good group and our regular MT (so I don't have to watch my aggro) on tomb trash (or hopefully VP trash so I can get my mythical.)
