Warrior / Warrior DPS

I am looking for tips, tricks, gear, and weapon suggestions for upping my DPS. Should I be using dual wield, 2 hander, a combination of the two, and with which burns?

What weapons should I be using or getting when 2 handed and/or dual wielding?

Suggestions on which discs, skills and AA to be using together?

If this guide is still accurate I will make better use of it from Fintank's post:

Primary Burn - Brutal Onslaught
Secondary Burn - Offensive + War Sheol's Heroic Blade
Tertiary Burn - Mighty Strike + Glyph of Destruction or Vehement Rage

Battle Leap - This is now a permanent aura, hit it as soon as possible once you've zoned into wherever you're fighting

Spam abilities - Shield Sunder, Bash/Kick, Gut Punch, Knee Strike, Stormwheel Blades

Anytimes - Second Spire, TDS BP click. I call these "anytimes" because you can basically hit them with anything and everything and get roughly the same amount of damage out of them.

Rage of Rallos Zek - The best time to use this is during a HHE (Hundred Hands Effect) modifier is running, outside of that circumstance just make sure you're at the max haste available to you.

Rampage - Rampage adds a nice boost to us for 1 combat round, the best time to do this is with your 3 main burn discs running. Obviously if all 3 are down when this repops (which is natural) that shouldn't stop you from hitting it.

Stacking - The reason for those combos is due to stacking. War Sheol's Heroic Blade does not fully stack with Brutal Onslaught, Mighty Strike or Glyph of Destruction. Brutal Onslaught does not stack fully with Glyph of Destruction. Vehement Rage doesn't stack with Offensive disc.

Offensive - BE CAREFUL! This disc will lock out your Last Stand for 4 minutes AND it will lower your mitigation by about 35%. All of that on top of the
mitigation lost by 2-handed proficiency is staggering.

Vehement Rage - Vehement Rage is a random throw away disc you can use on CD, it doesn't stack with Offensive and I wouldn't run it with your primary or secondary burn. If I stack this with anything it's normally Mighty Strike discipline.

Intensity of the Resolute - This is a special, it's best use is going to be when it's combined with Mighty Strike. Will not stack with Vehement Rage or Offensive Disc.

Optimal Sustained - I'd hold off on using all 3 of your actual burn disciplines in rapid succession unless the event is only going to last 3 minutes or less. Optimal route would be to use Rampage with each of your 3 main burn disciplines. So, given Heroic Rage's duration I'd give it about 10-15 seconds after Brutal fades before you pop it, just to ensure you get that mod on your Rampage. However you can go ahead with Offensive directly after Brutal fades, if you're choosing to lose your LS CD. Mighty obviously being used when Rampage pops again.

Wizard / Current wizard dps/burn lineups
« on: December 10, 2022, 09:03:06 PM »
Are there any wizards playing that could share how they are dpsing and what they do to burn currently? I am trying to get back into playing and want to make sure I am still getting as good of dps as I can.

Thanks!

I did a lot of tweaking with spells to see what the best lineup could be based on this tool and will be trying it out. If I see a noticeable improvement I will post it.

After the AA merge the main burn needs to be updated, we no longer have frenzied and sustained devastation, only frenzied.

Also, the mini burn setup no longer works as the associated aa are not longer there. If anyone has a decent way of doing a mini burn please post it. The only alternative I can find is using a magic based spell rotation which requires you to switch a few spells out for it. I will post what I found when I am in game next.

Step 1: drive around until you find an open wi-fi network.

Step 2: EQ.

Howdy!

Since I am new to raiding any help is appreciated, I want to make sure I am being as helpful to the raid as possible.

Should we be focusing in DPS, healing or both? I think in both of these encounters I was the only healer in my group and had most of my spell slots filled with heals and cures. I also had Doomscale and the HP buff loaded for rez buffs and Lion for the melee. (I could be wrong about Lion for Hate, I can't remember if I had all casters in the group or not).

Should I keep one or two spell slots clear and cycle through dots? If I am grouped with a healer DPS should be more of my focus I assume.
