Shots Fired: A Machinist Guide

@Haxetc @Odowla

Good to know! My static finally got the chance to try A1S last night and my burst damage on Faust was hella strange with the max dps of 1100 and min 950*
while everyone was doing 1200+.

Sadly i'm on PS4 and the ACT would be really awesome for me.

*I realized that Faust or the adds was killing my turret in the middle of the fight ∑(O_O；)

[Odowla]

I dont know your gear but at i195 I burst about 2k, up to 2.5K if i get a lot crits.

Or i burst 1600 because ACT fucked up wildfire

So it could be a Wildfire ACT interaction, or you could need more practice.

My bad, i meant to say my dps after 2:30 min in the fight. My burst is about 2k. i188 btw

1100 or so sounds about right

dont bother with "only faust" filtering since ricochet is the only thing thats aoe and its still only 300 potency, not like 300 x(number of adds) like other aoes

Hey @Odowla

i was watching your Wildfire vid again and trying to do the same rotation, but can't do more than a 6k dmg WF. The point here is, on your video, my rotation ends when your WF is still at 6s, following the same rotation as yours. You're casting 4 more skills than me. I'm playing with 150 latency, maybe that's the problem here

Does anyone here play mch on ps3? I have it at i182 but can't even top 1k dps on three minute parses against a dummy and I'm starting to think it's partially because of input lag and latency. I think I'm okay at doing the rotation, and looking at the parses haxetc and aiurily have put up from when they were about that ilevel I don't feel like food and pots alone should make up a 100+ dps difference. I'm sort of wondering if I should wait until I'm playing on PC before trying to do more with the class.

Uhhhm that's a lot of latency but i don't know if you lose 4 skills that quickly. I have a friend that plays from Korea that ends up 1 GCD behind me after 3 minutes. Maybe you're GCD clipping a lot more than you need to? Button Spamming to make everything over off here is pretty high so if you're not just spamming everything it just might not go off in time, etc. Otherwise I'm not sure, I know latency makes getting all the ogcds hard for sure, so it might make you clip a lot.

Yeah, i'll just keep practing and optimizing it. Thanks.

with a raid composition without drg, i was wondering how much in total does Litany + Disem. add to initial burst? 10% - 20%?

[Icebrand]

10% raw (disembowel), + 15% crit (battle litany) which is variable.
