Would it be difficult for you to repeat all that but with sentinel ability names?

I would love to know this too. What is your rotation you use now? I can't seem to get comfortable in pvp yet with combat. I like Watchman a lot more. Here is what I like to think the rotation is... Force leap > Zealous Strike > Double Strike (Combat Version) > Precision > Blast > Dispatch or Lance or Barrage in this order and whichever is off CD > Filler and keep up focus until Precision is ready then but usually consists of a blast before precision is ready so it changes > precision > Lance or Barrage whichever is ready > Maybe a blast or Double Strike > then wait till Precision is ready again with fillers. It's really frustration cause before Master Strike really helped me maintain a steady precision rotation.....

Does your gear greatly change your damage output? I am a fresh 70 still trying to finish up my story quests. Still on Rishi. I know the command point thing is new, haven't really invested into it a lot. I still feel like I do better damage overall as watchman in my current gear than I do with any of the 2 other specs.

Not even 3 seconds. In combat spec, cast zen, it was a 1 .5 sec cast.

Woa what? How do you do so much damage as a sentinel? I can barely tickle anyone on my 70 sent....

I don't think anyone is asking for blade dance's dmg in one GCD. People are asking for skills that compensate the damage of the ability within the same time frame.

Lol glad you did.

As others have stated, I agree. I have mixed feelings on the change as well. I kinda wish they removed lance and just gave us blade barrage plus keeping blade dance. I love the new abilities animation but I also loved blade dance. Specially when I was in combat spec and used zen. Blade Dance moved so fast and fluid that it felt right. The problem now is that we got a less powerful instant ability that doesn't even compensate half of the damage our old ability did in one cast. That's wrong. It basically destroys the fluidness and burst potential of one spec and gives the other two specs a buff. Concentrations damage also is affected but it's overall rotation wasn't as reliant as combat. You used zen, precision, and blade dance that thang. Combats concept relied on the ability to pull big numbers. Now that their biggest ability was stripped, it's amazing that they haven't replaced it with something else. Maybe it will change when I hit end game with high crit chance, because right now lance hits like a wet noodle.

Let's talk about some good ol pvp. Before the 5.0 patch I was loving my combat spec and ripping people up in PvP. Since the changes and change to our blade dance, I have been struggling with warzone overall damage and kills. I kept switching between concentration, combat, and watchman to feel out my dps in warzones. No surprise that my damage from Watchman has easily surpassed the other two specs. Here is what I see wrong with the other two. No sustained or good burst AoE in combat or concentration. Concentration I feel is very strong right now in bursting targets down, but doesn't provide any aoe pressure like watchman. Does anyone remember the days when you could almost half health shot people as concentration with one buffed up force sweep? After applying the buffs through other attack mind you. When did they nerf force sweeps damage to the ground? Combat could do some sick AoE damage but you would lose all single target burst. Which you usually need while focusing down the healer or anyone. Now Watchman. What I love about watchman is that all I have do is cast my two dots on the main target and force sweep. Done. Nothing else I need to do to apply PRESSURE on the enemy team. Why is it so simple? Can we bring back the simplicity of aoe pressure from concentration and fix the overall rotation of combat? Lance is not cutting it in replacement of blade dance. Blade barrage is fun n all, but my PvP burst has suffered greatly from the change. I would love yall's opinion on the 3 specs in pvp specifically. Which one is your favorite and why? Please share any insight on combat or concentration. Maybe I am doing it wrong. How do other sents/maras top charts in warzones because I've seen it happen. Once I've seen a mara do 400k dmg in a warzone when the 2nd place did only 200k. How. Teach me master.

I think adding it to a "after X Lance will critically hit..." will increase Lances value. Right now... it's extremely lackluster. I have no idea who was in charge of Sents, but whoever was really screwed this one up. I hope they hot fix it soon.

You explained all my concerns and problems with this ability beautifully. Thank you.

I feel like this skill was a uneeded, unwanted, wasted skill thrown at combat sents to mess with us? Or is that just me?

So... I am having a feeling I'm going to hate the new lance ability and trying to fit it in our rotation. Reason why I loved combat so much was because it had less abilities in the rotation.

Great video. I really enjoyed it and you looked like you were kicking ***. My only opinion for change is the music. Not a fan of the metal music. Party music, now that would be fun. I would be all up in your business if you had better music in your vids.

Even though I am not lv 50 yet and still do not have all these CDs, I can destroy people in warzones. The only time I have problems killing imps is when they are lv 50 and geared, but I feel like most people have this problem as well. Thankfully they are changing the warzones by grouping 50s together. I think after the change, people will have a better time in warzones. Anyway, my point is that we do not need all these CDs to be effective in PvP. Our rotation is difficult to master, but once you understand it.... welcome to destruction.
