    For all your dripping smug arrogance you would think your performance would be a lot better.
    By all means, find me a party that is on my level and I'll be more than happy to embarrass you further. Until then you are better seen and not heard, dismissed

    That’s laughable, your 96% GCD average is on par with mine. You also clip some of your OGCD play, just like me. Oh dear. Must be terrifying to be on par with someone who describes themselves as average.

    Come back when you can actually pull off a run where you can actually play with 99.5% GCD+ CD usage or higher, put your money where your mouth is, whydontcha?

    Until then, I believe it is you who are in fact, dismissed. Still shows you have a fair bit of improving to do.


    You’re right from an earlier post, maybe a little shaming is a good thing. I challenge you to play the ability your mouth talks up to.

    hi, if i may, i have some feedback

    your party isn't holding you back, in your best p8sp2 clear you didn't use verraise at all and your rdps contribution given from embolden is only ~200 less than in a rank 1 log - its not the best, but its still serviceable to hit orange at least

    your issues are:
    a) barely 95% gcd uptime, this is the main contributor
    b) another big contributor is the loss of a manafication usage as you're not rushing it (using it on cooldown, including in downtime). aligning it with raid buffs sounds like a good idea on paper, but its causing you to lose a melee combo over the course of the fight, which is a much bigger loss than you'll gain by having perfect buff windows
    c) perfect buff windows leads me into the next point - your buff windows should contain a full combo and a set of finishers (verflare/holy+scorch+resolution) if you're aligning manafication with embolden. you didn't achieve this once, with the closest attempt being your 4:50 window (natural alignment 2) where you used embolden before the start of your first combo and managed to fit a verholy and a verflare in it
    d) lazy drift of contre sixte causing a lost usage in the fight (mainly caused by not getting it on cd before high concept 1)
    e) same as above with corps-a-corps and engagement but this is a bit more understandable - you'd have to change your opener to be able to get them off before high concept 1 (i'd advocate for double weaving pot with fleche or contre sixte in your opener or simply moving the potion to 2:40 after high concept 1 to accommodate this)

    feel free to look up my character if you feel like you need to verify the credibility of my advice, and i'm happy to answer followup questions should you have them

    glhf!
