It is entirely possible to destroy the Oppressors shortly after the 2nd jump happens/ roughly about the time that the adds come out there. Due to this, numbers can easily fluctuate between 1000-1100+ (also depends on how well your group has decided to optimize the fight in order to achieve these results).

Lot of variables, like do you get trick attack, battle lit, how optimized are the add/lasers for you. Is your group doing mage LB or melee LB, and if the later, are you doing it.

I know for my group I get no buffs as they are mage heavy, outside of laser/add optimized, and I melee LB, and I do over a 1000, be higher if I didnt also have to LB3...

DPS on A1S is largely dependant on if you skip any jumps or not, but if you're killing it near Self-Destruct 947 is fine.

Got my first kill of A1S with my static last nite, but sadly I had a massive lag spike at around 1% so my DPS dip like hell, almost cause my team the kill cause I was burning my Oppressor while the other 3 dps burn the 0.5, fortunately someone notice I got the dc sign and switch target. According to the guy tanking the Oppressor, I did manage to get some skills off despite the lag, so that kills it while it was casting self destruct (0.5 was killed while I was dealing with the lag spike)

Woohoooo!

Good change, though I don't feel Tornado Kick recast needed a change, cause very seldom do we get to use it more than once in such short period of time.

Agreed, I don't think the recast change was ever even desired at all...I think all we needed was the damage to be counted for at the beginning of the cast. Not sure if SE was toying with the idea of us using it more often, but meh. The GL changes are interesting, and at the moment, I don't think are exactly game breakers, just a nice little padding.

The AST changes were more interesting imho.

Can you guys give me some a1s pointers? I know the fight but I'm not getting enough dps as I should, I'm getting like 840 dps at the end.

Holy fucking shit, those Monk buffs. We didn't really "need" them, but it doesn't stop me from loving them. Also, gj making Tornado kick STILL nearly worthless, SE.

Are you:

-Timing your attacks for mechanics?(for example, getting a correctly positioned true strike for the first photon spaser in phase 1)
-Squeezing in extra DPS on Oppressor when dealing with adds? You have a lot more leeway than you think.
-Timing your Tornado Kick after the last Royal Fount before jumps?(I mean...it's SOMETHING..)
-Potting?

The small things go a long way.
