Shots Fired: A Machinist Guide

[Ryaz]

Did Faust NM with a Drg and regular Risotto. No pot. Hit 1150 dps, but my highest Wildfire was still only 6500. No exactly sure what's going on with that. I have my buffs up, Reload, get a Slug Shot, pop Rapid Fire and Wildfire then go to town with Split Shot, Slug Shot, Cleaner Shot (with Dismantle), Split Shot, Cleaner Shot, Quick Reload, Split Shot, Slug Shot, while weaving Gauss around, Head Graze, Ricochet and Blank in between. Not sure what else I can do.

Try not using Rapid Fire until after you use the first Cleaner Shot because Reloading will eliminate Slug/Clean cast times and popping Rapid Fire with Reload is shooting yourself in the foot.

My Opener: HC > Buffs > Hot Shot > Potion > Lead Shot > Quick Reload > Split > Wildfire* + Reload > Slug > Reassemble + Clean > Rapid Fire + Ricochet > Split + Gauss Round > Slug + Head Graze > Clean + Blank > Drop Gauss Barrel (for an auto attack and to reapply Hot Shot without the cast)

Wildfire* - My reason for delaying this until AFTER the first Split is because of server ticks and to ensure I can squeeze out an extra auto attack with those extra 3-4seconds

You do realise that you have no autoattacks whilst Gauss Barrel is equipped?

...I think it's very apparent I was talking about an auto attack after I drop Gauss Barrel which I clearly put into the rotation
