Take caution with GS3! It cancels all skills except healing mantra (which also cancels, but this happens more rarely imo) So pay close attention to the cast bar of the other skills, especially GS4. When the cooldown is only 4 sec instead 5/12 respectively, you have cancelled the skill mid cast

Same question @ConnorConCarne: I assume it's [Deadeye's Mark] F2 [Shadow Flare] [Heartseeker]x3 F2 + [Mercy] + [Deadeye's Mark] [Heartseeker]x3 Fill with auto. repeat-ish. on staff im around 29k and when swapping to dager i drop to 26k. so i dont see the rotation getting any better.

this does more damage herald has more boons and utility it really depends on how much you trust the healer in your subgroup
@connorconcarne4 күн бұрын
Quickness Deadeye has significantly higher damage and can slot Invigorating Precision for extra sustain and should still be able to out-damage Herald. Herald offers way wider boon access (both in range and in number of boons). It depends a bit on your Healer as well. If your Healer pumps out a wide range of boons then Deadeye is a great shout. Herald is generally the safer choice though and can 'carry' groups harder.

Binding Shadow isn't a knockdown anymore, the tooltip still lists it by mistake. The only CC it provides is Immobilize which is unimpressive. Could take Pitfall or Shadow Gust instead (Shadow Gust is also handy for its knockback e.g. Seeker Control on Vale Guardian, Rigom push on Samarog).

You can play Quick DE rotations for a DPS build by using Be Quick or Be Killed grandmaster. Taking the SnowCrows bench with that trait gets 41.9K on the golem, and it’s comfy in real content because you generate a ton of your own Quickness. Never worry about supports not giving enough Quick or Vigor to play Power Daredevil comfortably. XD kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aK-nqNqSuZzdgok.htmlsi=Ses75tgsykaBnmqY

step 1 : player virtuoso and spam your 3 damage spells with 42k benchmark
@eduardshaman26 күн бұрын
I know it's an exaggeration and I don't even play virtuoso but you need to be properly resetting and playing fast for 42k on cvirt. Laidback rotation with just the main weapon skills is 30k ish. Though that is still not bad considering the range, sustain, cc and others tbh.
@connorconcarne26 күн бұрын
Condi Virt is definitely one of the easier classes to play and you can easily get in the high 30's with relatively little effort. Getting it to 42k though still requires just as much effort as most other builds though.

I'm a casual player and would say that most of the groups I've been into for raids and strike missions, if your dps output is over 20k you're more than golden, 15k for offensive support. Maybe for organized groups instead of pugs they'd be looking down on you.. on t4 fractals I don't know, but they're (in my opinion) the hardest content to get into and get a steady dps output. Oh, btw, I'd love to hear more tips on how to git gud at fractals! Sometimes they're too fast or you need to move too much so I'm constantly juggling between rotation and mechanics to be consistent, even when being able to perform okayish on the golem & 10-man content. Thanks for the video, really appreciate how accessible you make the game appear for the newbies (like me)

Another tip I'd like to give is, instead of following the written rotation on the website, try to follow the rotation in bench videos, or even better if you know how to read logs. Compare your own log and the benchmark log, see where you are slow and losing out on time. Most of the case for low dps in GW2 comes down to being slow.
@connorconcarne26 күн бұрын
Great points! I like to watch rotation videos on half speed (which I why whenever I include rotation sections in guides I always slow them down). Being able to check your log against the benchmark is super useful as well (definitely a topic for a future video). Spot on, after a certain point low DPS is basically just not pressing buttons fast enough.
@Michsomething28 күн бұрын
Thanks for this video. I especially liked the explanation of the benchmark and what is considered decent DPS for content. One thing I didn't understand was why adding conditions to the golem matters.
@WaterYaDune27 күн бұрын
Some classes do more DPS when certain conditions are on an enemy. For example, any thief build using the Deadly Arts traitline will have the intrinsic trait Exposed Weakness, which gives a 2% damage increase for each unique condition.
@connorconcarne26 күн бұрын
You're very welcome :) Conditions on the golem are super important. Like @WaterYaDune mentioned, some classes do bonus damage per the number of total conditions on the target. Most important though is Vulnerability which is just a straight 25% damage increase when vulnerability is capped (which it basically always is). for a build doing 40k+ DPS, Vulnerability accounts for 10k of that.

@llamacomando20 күн бұрын
this game is very much focused on horizontal progression, meaning : once you get exotic, you are pretty much ready to raid and do other endgame content (excluding fractals). All you need is a group that is willing to teach, or be patient. i think his point is kind of just that if you play the game and do what you enjoy, you will passively get these materials, which you can then turn into gold. also as far as foods go, if you google : Clairyx/Standard Raid Foods , it will bring you to the wiki and will show you some great options as far as budget food options go. the most expensive ones, while obviously best, are really only necessary for min-maxing, and you can do totally respectable damage with the budget versions. hope this was helpful!
