DPS Check

Recommended Posts

I haven't been playing this toon much, but I want to see where my dps is at with my current gear. I haven't raided much, so its mostly baleful and the occasion raid piece, with a few crafted thrown in. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

trying to help ya out here bud but not quite sure what you are looking for.

 

if raw dps is just your question, you can download addons from curse called recount and or skada (everyone says skada is better but i like recount more). and with those you can track your own dps on each fight.

 

if looking for rotation help. mr robot logs are to be blunt, not good. warcraft logs is far superior and shows us more information. also lfr archimonde being the only log source is sorta difficult. archi is kinda a weird fight for dks. but i can give some feedback on abilities used, and your gear.

 

as far as what you are doing (again ask mr robot is difficult to use) it appears you are doing fine in general except for one thing, your necrotic plague usage. first, defile is by far the superior talent to go to for dual wield frost, especially with the EDH trinket (empty drinking horn). so using necrotic plague you will see lower dps then other dks. however, when using it you want almost 100% uptime with it. and according to ask mr robot you only have 40%. frankly with howling blast spam im not sure how this is possible. so if you choose to use necrotic plague (cough switch to defile cough) you want 100% uptime.

 

now as far as your character build goes. your enchants are correct. so that is good. however lets talk talents. runic empowerment is terrible just period. the best talent is blood tap for frost (actually all) dks. it gives you the most runes and on demand usage. now if you have trouble managing it runic corruption is your secondary choice. but with empowerment you are depriving yourself of runes. As far as level 90 talents go, it doesn't really matter for dps necessarily but gorefiends grasp is the dks bread and butter (and frankly why we get brought to raids XD) you may find better use of it then desecrated ground. DG is a good pvp talent, but not too useful in pve. 

 

so those are initial things i can see, to try to help ya out. hope i could answer some questions.

Thanks Demon! That was a big help and i'll get some warcraft logs in the books. I mainly was curious about rotation and talents. I have struggled with Blood Tap in the past, but will give it a try again, and I will definitely throw defile in for necrotic plague. Necrotic plague seemed like a logical choice, as it really doesnt require you to do anything, but I have seen where defile destroys it in dps. Thanks for the tips, I'll go try them out!
