Shots Fired: A Machinist Guide

[Daemonxel]

So I believe I have been MCH wrong all this time. I didnt have B4B so I figured my low dps was due to that fact so I get it and still cant break 800.

Using 180 weapon and 1 piece 160 the rest is a mixture of 170 & 180 and 190 belt

This entire time my rotation was:
turret down
gb on
Hot shot
Lead shot
eye for eye
rapid fire
raging strikes
reload
wildfire
hypercharge
split
guass shot
slug
reassemble
clean
riccochet
head shot
split
quick reload
slug
clean

and if I can squeeze it in blank

so it was brought to my attn that I have enormous amount of downtime doing the CDs when I am. I guess that is where my dps is completely faltering? I have e4e b4b and rapid fire in a macro cause I am running out of space on hot bars.. can someone please help me with what I could macro together or what I should have on hotbars as priority and what I can lose? Right now I feel like I wasted time leveling this job. never knew the rotation was that important where if done wrong you could lose 200-400 dps

Lead shot with buffs up. You're lowering your dps by going hot shot, leadshot instead of buffing up and then hotshot -> lead shot.

Eye for an eye? What?

Eye for an eye? What?

Pretty sure meant Blood for Blood.

Pretty sure meant Blood for Blood.

I would say that's true except he says this right after "I have e4e b4b and rapid fire in a macro cause I am running out of space on hot bars"

Maybe he meant Hawks Eye?
