The Ninja Superthread

Interesting. I know all damage in the game has a +/- 5% variance to it. It's possible our "true" LB1 damage was smack in the middle (8.4k) and we were just getting the low end every time without TA and the high end with it, which incidentally replicates a 10% damage increase precisely. To be fair, the sample size was only 3 LBs with each (so 6 total) so it's possible knowing how busted RNG is for my group. Mainly wanted to get others doing testing as well.

What's the ideal DPS I should be aiming for? Last night I ended up with 457, then when i left combat to end the parse, I had 448. Here's my lodestone to give you an idea about what gear i'm using:

I can't really tell you if it's bad or not, but i have mostly crafted left side (with HA cleavers) and i get around 485-520 depending on my mudra lag. It varies for me lol. ith dex party buff.

Tried again, and got 454 with a party buff. Either the party buff is minor, or I screwed something up somewhere.

How bad is your mudra lag? What opener/rotation are you using?

Mudra lag was near non existant given it was 6 am-ish at my time. What I did was:

Huton(pre pull) > SE > GS> DE> Mug> Mutilate> Jugilate> SE> SF> SE> Suiton> GS> Trick attack> AE> KS> Raiton > Then work off of whatever is about to fall off first from there on. I can provide a video if necessary.

Practice this opener and let us know how much improvement you see.

Replace xpot with Jug or Mug if you'd rather not use pots while training.

Also, make sure you have a venom active. For whatever reason, they like to fall off now every time you enter or leave an instance.
