Cybridwarform Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Ello peeps i wanted to seek some feedback from the sniper community as far as getting my numbers up. Ive heard things like... "if you have 192 gear u need 4kdps." and i want to fix my problem. http://i.imgur.com/L6T1TxQ.jpg ^ My snipers stats. 186 relics, main stat augments, mostly 192 with the 6 set bonus(just got it today w00t \o/). ATM i am having an issue which i am stuck at 3.6k dps the highest. On the typical boss fight i end up with something like 3.5-3.3k. Ive tried Dulfy rotations, rotations other people throw at me, etc... and nothing seems to budge that mid 3k+ gripes. I tried marksman, virulence and they both seem to hover at the same dps. If 4k is the norm for 192 dps then someone halp! please! what the crap am i doing wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcRFC Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Please upload one of your Dummy-Tries to http://parsely.io/ Depending on the Boss your dps seems to be ok. (for Underlurker, Commanders, Cora...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THAT_EPIC_GUY Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Those saying you need 4k in 192 gear are most likely referring to dummy parses or a select few raid encounters. Those numbers are fine if that's what you're pulling in raids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howdor Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I second the above statement your raid numbers are fine. If you need help for dummy parses upload to parsely so people can do a closer analysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybridwarform Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Thanks for the replies guys, sorry for the delay. I will load up the parses from our raid this week when i can. I am always iffy about dummy parsing since it is not really accurate due to mechanics/movement/etc... Im curious to see how i do now with the 6 set bonus since i never got a chance to try it out in a current content raid since i got it on our last raid night.

Cybridwarform Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Went ahead and posted a quick dummy parse before bed. Ill try to upload a legit raid one when i can. http://parsely.io/parser/view/64802 Im sure it could be better, i know i have a really bad tendency of reapplying dots early... force of habit really, i usually panic when i see the dots about to fall which i am sure is giving me a huge drop in dps. -any improvement tips shoot em my way.

MarcRFC Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 ok... 1.) use the 1 Mio Dummy 2.) your APM value is very low APM is the number of attacks you use per minute. You APM value is about 25. You should try to apply your attacks much faster. You should hit at lease 33 APM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under the Ability Usage tab you can see the time difference between each time you use a skill. Weakning Blast has a cooldown of 18 seconds, Cull a cooldown of 9 seconds, and they are extremely important skills in your rotation in terms of firing whenever they go off cooldown (though ofc not if you dont have both Corro Dart and Corro Grenade on target) The "Max time" for Cull is 15 seconds and for Weakening Blast is 26 seconds in your parse. That's simply too slow. Lastly, you didn't use Rifle Shot even once? Edited September 16, 2015 by MFollin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybridwarform Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Yeah like i said it was just a quick 2ish min parse before bed. Idealy i have never thought to use rifle shot for anything other than a movement phase. My usual rotation consists of dart, nade, cull, takedown, then series and by the time the chann on series is over id pop cull again. During the times sos is on cd i can usually squeeze in 2 virsnipes and cull comes off cd. I rarely have energy issues unless i spam too many virsnipes and i usually never dip down unless i know adrenprobe is coming off cd soon. I figured if anything rifle shot would be a waste of a gcd for the dmg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elracor Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 ... My usual rotation consists of dart, nade, cull, takedown, then series and by the time the chann on series is over id pop cull again. ... There should be 1 more GCD between those Culls.

Cybridwarform Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 That is what i cant seem to figure out without letting the dots fall or clipping sos so that i can ensure i use cull on cd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well as someone else said your Actions Per Minute is simply too low. You should be clicking stuff faster (without clipping them). Once you do that fast enough I'm pretty sure the rest will solve itself. Edited September 16, 2015 by MFollin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybridwarform Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 I took a quick parse of the first boss in todays GF. http://parsely.io/parser/view/64997 Hopefully this is a bit more accurate to real encounters / mechanics etc...

Those numbers are fine if that's what you're pulling in raids. Oh wow... I am basically pvp only and just recently started to run ops with my guild. Had never used a parser before but last night I finally got starparse to see where I'm at in raids. Topped out at 3.7k and stayed mostly in the 3.3-3.5 range.(playing MM only so far) My only point of reference was looking at the dps parse threads where people where knocking out like 4-5k. We didn't wipe at all, but even so I figured I was a heavy carry and almost quit after my first night of raiding, because I thought that was terrible. I'm not very geared, (186s and comms gear, no set bonuses and store bought ruusan relics) but knowing my dps and apm is in the right range for now is reassuring. Guess I'll stick with it. This actually makes me excited to get in on the next run Edited September 18, 2015 by juleswinfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whojoo Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) To the OP's Dash n roode parse. Yea looks fine to me. Oh wow...

This actually makes me excited to get in on the next run Never look at top parses for any game or class. Those are the top and not the average Your numbers are good.
