SMN rotation

[BlaiseArath]

I'm surprised this much thought goes into the exact form and sequence of your 1/2/3's. Not saying this is a bad thing at all, I just truly wonder how much extra DPS is gained by following such a strict formula like this

Raging Strikes -> X-Potion of Intelligence -> Bio II (Start precasting it when you see your tank about to engage) -> Miasma (Start moving toward the boss at 0.5 left on the cast) -> Bio -> Fester (when Bio applies) -> Miasma II -> Potent Poison Potion -> Contagion + Swiftcast -> Shadow Flare -> Rouse -> Ruin II -> Spur -> Ruin II -> Fester -> Ruin II -> Enkindle -> Ruin -> Ruin -> Ruin II -> Fester -> Ruin II -> Aetherflow.

Again... absolutely no problems with it, I'm actually quite the min-maxer myself, just never to this degree... yet

(Edit: I know you obv meant just for that fight and not everything ever )

This is just our opening rotation and its the correct one to squeeze the most damage out. Thats what DPS is for the most part, small little things that add up to be a lot.

More on topic: After the rotation is done just keep DoTs up (refreshing with about 3 seconds left) Use Aetherflow on cooldown, only use Fester (or Bane if you need to AoE onto something).
Raging Strikes almost on CD (you may need to wait 5-10 seconds depending on how contagion lines up).
