I moved my pubs back from The Bastion to The Harbinger again after logging on Aussie times to find 1 instance of the fleet containing around 25 people on The Bastion. Kind of reminds me of the APAC servers near the end.
im gonna do this too, 20 people in pub fleet is terrible, meanwhile 150 imps

hello
mains a commando wearing all (-1) 180 gear, im currently on the bastion server thinking of xfering over, im from australia and im looking for a guild that raids in this timezone. im interested in any 16man ops, i can do hms but im not very experienced, however i learn fast. i prefer dpsing but also can heal if needed. my current server is completely dead in my timezone, hour queues for tacticals, forget 55fps and the ops are non existant. 12 people in fleet tonight... leaving me very bored
my current guild are starting to reroll imp as its more active, tonight there was 1 other person online.
im looking for a friendly guild thats very active and runs plenty of operations, must be aus timezone, must be active, and it must have a cool name. i dont mind running fps or helping out fresh 55s, anything is better sitting in fleet all night
i also have an alt shadow which is decently geared and keen on ops, most probably be xfering her too
and finally a friend would xfer over with me, hes after the same thing i want

Since Assault Specialist doesn't have an armor debuff, you can buy an item that applies it to the ops dummy. You can also buy an item that gives the ops dummy 500k, 1000k and 1500k health (so that it can go below 30% hp and get affected by Burnout).
They are purchased from a legacy-unlockable droid. I'm not in game right now so I can't look up what it's called, but it is in one of the Legacy-wide unlocks next to the "Ship GTN Terminal" unlock. Once you unlock this droid, he appears in your ship near your cargo hold, then you can buy these items.
You equip the item, target the dummy, and activate it.
As far as the proc chance goes, if you chain two Charged Bolts in a row, or a Full Auto then Charged Bolts you are practically guaranteed an Ionic Accelerator proc. It ends up looking like this:
CB - CB - HiB - <something>
FA - CB - HiB - <something>
CB - CB - HiB - <something>
CB - CB - HiB - <something>
The <something> will be Incendiary Round when the DoT runs out (don't clip it), Assault Plastique on CD, Electro Net on CD, Reserve Powercell / Plasma Grenade, or another Charged Bolts.
You should be able to hit HiB every 6.3 seconds or less. It is the primary way to keep your ammo high and hardly ever have to use Hammer Shots -- in some cases you may not need it at all.
hey thanks for your help, no one told me this is how to correctly do parses, burnout, -20% armour and the 100k hp pool really improves your dps.
ive also gotten much better at my rotation, trying to time hib more.
heres some of my best parses, i didnt know how to upload more than one so i had to copy and paste into one notepad document, i havent adjusted or moved any numbers so its still legit.

i hope this link works, im not the smartest man when it comes to forums and stuff

Dummy should have armour debuff on it using the dummy armour debuff item
Look to proc HiB every 6s,
I'm unsure of what this item is.
I've also found the proc chance isn't 100% which makes it a little difficult with 250 ping
Thanks

Gunnery is nowhere near 4k max
Mercenary Pyro has hiscores of 4k but not Commando Assault because of a bug which gave Mercs an extra 100dps
That is fixed next major patch.
Leaderboards are garbage if you want normal output. To get on the leaderboard you stack high power then do a few hundred parses til you get a really good run of crits. You also change your talent tree to remove pushback and gain more crit, something you don't do in a raid.
So fantasy numbers only on the leaderboard. If you want real numbers you look at raid dps leaderboards. Even then you want to watch that they have not been fluffing their damage with DoT and AOE on things they should not.
However you want to be able to hit about 3500 on a dummy using Gunnery in 180s with some practice.
Remember that the dummy is simply practice, raid damage will vary hugely depending on what you're allowed to hit and for how long. The hardest fight in the live game is 16m NiM Brontes and 2400 DPS at the end of that is considered good because its lots of target swapping and short bursts. Gunnery by the way is the spec you would take for that fight.
Hey. Firstly I'm not trying to start an argument, just after a logical explanation. So sorry if I came off a bit strong.
I am off topic, which is why i wanted to create a new thread, but I wasn't talking about gunnery, nor was I talking about assault for that matter. I was talking about the 1k dps difference between myself and the highest known parse, asking if I was doing something wrong.
Again, 100 dps because of a bug I understand. Not 1k.
We are also talking about dummy parses not bosses, I understand the difference however again. 1k dps.
And finally if it's all got to do with rng, why is there such a high difference between best and worst. I'll respect to crit and do a few parses tonight. Thanks for your input
-
Also, the 4k+ parsers are likely only linking their best, most RNG-favorable (read: high-crit) parses, and are in full, perfectly optimized 180s - probably some 186s, now, too - rather than "mostly" 180s.
I'm 2 pieces short of full 180. Which shouldn't justify a 1k ps loss. And I doubt some 186 gear because they're old parses. I'll start my own thread soon with a few parses and maybe you guys can analyse them. Thanks for everyone's help
-
I agree in general, but I believe you're overlooking the primary reason to do a parse is to practice, rather than to expect a translation of ops dummy numbers to real fight numbers.
ive always understood this, learn it from wow that a dps test on a dummy can never be truly accurate, however, if someones dps is 4k on said dummy and mine is 3k (tried a few parses and dps went up from 2600, im very happy) in nearly all 180 gear, then theres something wrong... besides, is there a boss fight which you can test your dps? a pure tank and spank fight? no adds, no mechanics
-
A log might help, but I feel comfortable saying that dummy DPS is no true indication of boss DPS. I, too, am mostly 180 gear and don't break 3k on boss fights, but am parsing 3.2k on dummy. Movement, cleanses, target swaps - all things that occur in a real encounter and not on a dummy that dig into the rotation and lower overall DPS. As long as your group isn't wiping to enrage timers, your DPS is probably fine.
I've done a few parses on the boss dummy and my max is about 2600 for assault. Can't remember gunnery parses. I'll do a few tonight and reply. Is op ok with me posting here or should I start a new thread
-
This is a Mercenary parse, remember. Off-hand attacks have a 30% accuracy penalty as part of the balancing thingy. You'll notice that the only attacks that ever missed in that parse were Rapid Shots, Unload, and Rail Shot (mirrors of Hammer Shot, Full Auto, and HIB respectively), which have both a mainhand and an offhand hit. All the Tech attacks have full accuracy, you'll see.
That explains it thank you. I've only been playing for a few months so I guess I'm still new

If you're comfortable with analyzing someone else's parses, he's a link to Odawwg's Arsenal parse.
http://www.torparse.com/a/656312
is he not hit capped?
also over 50% crit on tracer missile (im assuming thats grav round? with 4pce bonus) on some parses is huge
not to hijack the thread but im also having low dps issues, mostly 180 gear and i cant break 3k dps on boss fights, waiting to see peoples replies and hopefully fix my issue here than starting my own thread
Commando dps looking for aus guild pubside
