2050~ burst @ i180, 7246 wildfire. this is, afaik the most optimal opener when it comes to wildfire burst. my highest hits are around 8.3k with drg at i185

this opener is worse, but crit luck was better. don't use this opener. 2187 burst @ i180

2nd wildfire should look like this

filler skills>HE+BFB come up>filler skill>HE>hot shot>BFB>lead shot>1>wildfire>1/2>rapidfire>1/2/3>quick reload>insert oGCDs as needed

in an optimal run your dots for wildfire burst should always have HE/BFB applied, and RS as well when applicable

Why not use quick reload later and use clean shot with RS/pot still on? Also gets you head graze in there with the ogcd that opens up.

clean still hits with rs/pot normally (clipped gcd in video because of lag/gcd clip), but more room for error with higher skill speed/fey wind too

qr is there mainly to get it on cd faster, but if you have low skill speed/lag issues with rapid fire clipping cds then you could do that

was lagging a bit so i decided to try this out

you end up getting 1 less GCD buffed by RS+xpot if you do this, because you'd do

split>slug>clean (rapidfire)>split>slug>clean>cast time split

that last cast time split will definitely not be buffed, compared to

split>slug>clean (rapidfire)>split>slug>split>clean

since all the skills after rapidfire here are instant, you get 1 additional gcd buffed by rs/xpot

As long as you get the Clean Shot in, I guess.


Also, why not use RS last?
