How much The Wanderer's Minuet truly adds to damage?

[Sylve]

When I was levelling BRD up and learned WM, I honestly didn't have it up much at all. It was at level 54 when I kept it on. Empyrean Arrow is pretty damn sexy, especially when you use it with Barrage.

I ended up turning it on at 52 and never did turn it back off. Figured i should learn the casts as much as possible for when i get to do other stuff with it

This is honestly the only reason to use WM before 56. WM is a horrible tool until you get better abilities for it (which really doesn't come into play until at least Iron Jaw... even EA alone doesn't make up for it). You can try to weave it now that it's instant cast, but the 15sec wait till you can turn it off makes that difficult. At 56, WM becomes a lot better to use in matching your output without it due to IJ, but still just comes down to either spending your last moments without it before you become a turret for good at 60 or going head first into the change. Either way, it's generally a bad skill until 56.
