Kyovarde Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 By pressing CB+Precision at the same time or Precision+Dispatch I'm able to fit 3 Abilities into the Precision window (with no bonus Alacrity), this includes a Zen Master Strike, but at the cost of 1-2~ APM. Is it worth it for the extra ability in Precision? Granted, it doesn't work perfectly every time. Also, Combat is parsing lower for me than even Concentration (best parses on 1mil are 4350~ Watchman, 4150~ Concentration, 3900~ Combat). Is Concentration just horribly underrated or do I simply suck at Combat?

I define this as activating an ability immediately before Precision so that it registers its damage potential inside the Precision window. I have done testing with Clipping Clashing Blast and it was about 50% successful most of the time. However, Twin Saber Throw and Dispatch can be activated in this fashion and will 100% of the time register inside the Precision window allowing for three damaging abilities gaining the Precision buff while still only pressing two abilities after using Precision. My average APM i'd say hover right around 49 and I do Clip Precision with abilities as often as i can, which on a dummy parse is never an issue. On the note of DPS I pull on average between 4.5 and 4.6 on a 1 million dummy. If you'd like feel free to check out my 3.0 Combat Sentinel Guide, i have an example parse posted on there.
