Shots Fired: A Machinist Guide

[Ryaz]

I hit a 9k Wildfire ( 6-7k average) with a DRG, HQ Black Truffle Risotto, Battle Litany, and non HQ Dracopot on Savage Faust last night/earlier this morning. My lodestone should be all my current gear...with all that being said, I personally think it has to do with luck on getting Crit DoTs on Lead Shot and OGCDs because I was NOT expecting to damn near break 10k at i186

Yeah, he said he had no Drg or pot. The 1k I hit with 7.3k Wildfire was basic Risotto only. Not sure if he was in a party or not, but considering he went dry on TP, I'm assuming it was a test dummy. I'll do some more tests today as I only did a couple yesterday and was playing with my rotation a bit. I've seen a few different rotations-- some say to pop Wildfire and first Split Shot, some say after Slug Shot. Still seems to be some debate on the beat rotation. I feel comfortable with using it after Split myself.

I'd really like to try Savage myself, but everyone says it needs a static and my job doesn't really allow one as my days off and work time can change.

I got a 9.4k in As3 last night, i got accused of needlessly popping draconian potions >:

That's ridiculous

I'm not sure if it's a network issue on my end or but I think my first Slug Shot is not registering under Wildfire. Even with an HQ Draconian + DRG in my group, I'm hard pressed to reach 8k. I might just have to swap the rotation to Wildfire/Potion instead of Wildfire -> Slug -> Potion
