    Default Raiding dps wars are still okay!

    1848 as the cookie cutter 38para/21chmp/7rb. No power issues ever. Used whetstone, only 35 vial, cupcake, tablet. My weapons are trash...Whisperwood Edge from Duke and a bloodied T2 stiletto. We are fine guys

    ***Too bad my guild was bad and we had a 1.4% No Power wipe *** 4:34 though, you can easily see it is virtually end of fight and not a 1 min attempt with blown cds.

    I agree that we are fine, but that pic is unreadable as well as just showing that can include cyphers...

    I ran the para setup tonight and w/ only t2 weps I was still top 3 dps on basically all fights...

    too easy w/o a pet, a few range attacks, and the power consumption is simple as all hell...

    the build also has little in the area of stat buffs so you get a big jump from raid buffs and vials.

    Yes GZ TRION since more builds are raid worthy. Not to mention souls that were a tabboo even to talk about in a raid environment before 1.3. Really good job.

    though some fights are better recommanded with pets (example: johlen last phase), hence the bm.

    Sorry won't feed you. It seems you are one of the people with the self-entitlement of 100% correct "opinions". Sorry to burst your bubble but that is not true. If you don't like DW then it is your problem. I know it was mine when I had to play with 2h before. Things change.

    I wasn't the top tonight, but then I wasn't trying that hard (why waste a potion and consumables on Greenscale?). My best DPS encounters (Hylas and Greenscale) I'm usually shanghaied into tanking now since I actually made the specs that're useful there, but the fights I was DPSing I typically was in the top 5 at least, without having a sexy legendary. Aside from Johlen, where I was at the top again because I actually pay attention and don't die >_>

    If those were cipher numbers we wouldn't be going for no power lol. I assure you we filter it out. 1800+ is easily repeatable with 38/21/7 so feel free to try

    regardless, point of the thread was to alleviate concerns many warriors felt about our place in raids after 1.3 You can come out of the bomb shelter guys, there is no nuclear fallout...we are okay. Grab some 1hers and enjoy the party

    Need to go to bed, but hopefully this can help somebody...

    AP spam macro
    cast path of the raptor
    cast dual strike
    cast frenzied strike
    cast turn the blade
    cast inescapable fury
    cast flinching strike
    cast path of the wind

    *I like PotW at the bottom purely in case I am ever out of range i can hit with that followed by a ranged raptor strike until I'm back in melee range. Not necessarily essential, but feel free to use it if the spirit moves you*

    Self buffs to choose = Way of the Wind and Slayer's (assuming your crit is over 35% in a raid).

    As far as finishers go, I do not macro them. Bend like the reed is top priority every minute (despite its horrible animation and hogger of a GCD). 100% SLI uptime is a must! Achieve this by using SLI> Fiery burst> Fiery burst> SLI. The third burst is not worth the risk and rng of weapon master procs every time to fit it in. By letting those 2 bursts tick their whole duration without clipping, you safely keep SLI up while managing fiery burst (strongest dw finisher by far for pve).

    Like the 5th time I've seen someone post that they put a ranged ability at the end of their macro like it was a genius idea they just had. EVERYONE does (or should do) this now.

    Would it not be better to put PoTH above PoTR?

    Obviously when dummy parsing this is a no no. But when it doesn't matter what you hit around you since there is only one target it would make sense. Right?



    I need to get used to putting btrl in my rotation. I feel like it is lowering my dps, but I know it is all in my head. The build is so fluid until you cast it, then you're just kind of... sitting there.
