DPS Struggle.

[Ryaloth 0]

Hey guys, fairly new here and I've been a long time Rogue player and I just don't seem to see what I'm doing wrong. I feel like with 883 equipped I should be pulling way more DPS but i'm struggling to keep 450k at some points and should be hitting upwards of 500k+/ If anyone could give me some tips that would help a great deal as I try to not be bad at my class. Any and all advice is helped! Thank you in advance.

My rotation is almost spot on with what I should be doing (I think.)

Stealth/Garrote/Rupture/Mutilate/Vanish/Rupture/Envenom Upkeep and Bleeds and so forth.

I'm still getting used to checking logs and i'm not that good at judging preformance by looking at logs but from checking your armory i could point out that your trinkets are pretty much worthless, you gain nothing from icon of rot afaik and natures call is pretty terrible compared to the other trinkets you could get. So trinkets is a huge dps loss and from what i can see you only have one legendary, even though it's a bis one, it's a pretty big loss of damage only having one.

Your stats look okey but can be more optimized.

Checked logs for the things i can, i saw that on trilliax and specially chronomatic HC, you should work on your uptime on your bleeds. Try to get them as close to 100% as you can.

Do you have anything to use in place of one of your t19 pieces? Really no need to have 5 equipped if you can get better stats from something else. 

Trinkets have definitely gotta be improved - should just be a matter of time, since it looks like you have NH on farm.

Using the Trilliax log as an example, the bleed uptime isn't bad. Poisons dropped a couple times which is really not great, especially with Agonizing Poison, as it takes time to build back up. You can use the poisoned knife thing to keep poisons active when you're out of melee range.

Also looks like you aren't using Vanish to buff an initial Rupture with Vendetta in your opener. Overall, you could have hit 5 Vanishes total over the course of an 8 minute fight, which would have resulted in a lot more damage from buffed Ruptures.
