  1. Opener is ok now Whether you are on a dummy or on a boss, you will be following a rotation (if done correctly ofc). This rotation will have to be interrupted, resumed and in other ways changed due to boss mechanics and learning how to best adapt to these things is where priorities can be helpful. But for new players looking to understand a spec, I think it would be very beneficial to be able to see how the abilities fit together to see the pattern of how things repeat and more specifically WHY. When you understand the why's of it, it becomes much easier to learn how to adapt in raid situations. But ofc, that's just my take
  2. A couple points: Your opener is.. not only not correct but also physically impossible First off the second use of force melt (13) comes before the ability is off cooldown. Secondly the second use of cauterize (12) comes while the previous cauterize still has 1,5 seconds left of its duration, effectively wasting damage. Third, the second merciless (14) comes before the ability is off cooldown. So.. back to the drawing board on that one (I would assume you forgot that some abilities like OS work off the gcd) I would also advise against using percentages for stat targets and go for the actual values instead. Also, while priorities can be good for when you need to recover your rotation from downtime and similar situations, the watchman in 4.0 works pretty much on a set rotation. Sure the fillers can vary slightly due to unpredictable focus generation but the core is static so when writing a guide you definitely need to talk about and show this. In general, I would suggest you take a look at Oofalong's guide here. If you still feel the need to make another guide (I wouldn't say it's needed, Oof's guide is excellent ^^) it may at least provide some tips on how to structure certain parts.
  3. Sounds like a bad idea since you lose the 2nd 2-stack tick of Overload Saber and the "free" focus from leap meaning you're working the same rotation with less starting focus basically.
  4. Nice work as usuall Oof/ele! I actually like the new Watchman and yesterday i had (for the first time in months i might add) fun while raiding ^^ It's no 2.8 Watchman of course but then again.. nothing will ever be..
  5. Excellent initiative my shorts-wearing friend! (Germans still only wear shorts right? ) You can sign me up for the $500 on the condition they STAY AWAY from altering the spec in any way shape or form in the future. Greatest thread 2015
  6. Just thought i'd point out also that the Set bonuses do not work. Changing them doesn't have any effect on DPS.
  7. Really nice work man as always thanks a lot! There seems to be a bug however where the 198 initiative enhancement gives surge instead of accuracy and the battle enhancement gives accuracy instead of surge. Just thought I'd point that out so no one spends time tearing their hair trying to figure out why the stats don't cooperate (not saying i did that *cough*) Also Annihilate is missing from the "damage by ability" on the character gear page.
  8. Agreed, new watchman is a snooze fest and doesn't feel intuitive at all. Actually it doesn't feel *anything* at all. Just bland, generic and boring.
  9. This a thousand times.. New watchman is just in no way enjoyable.. and I'm sad
  10. Through our philosophy of "If something seems impossible, you probably haven't broken the mechanics enough yet"
  11. Helloooo.. again Now that The Dread Masters have sung their last song even in Nightmare Mode we thought it was time to put the final nail in the symbolic humiliation coffin and kill them with 3 people! I recommend you try this at home while waiting for expansion, it's a nice change of pace Here are the videos: - Sage PoV - Sentinel PoV - Sentinel PoV - Sentinel PoV - Sentinel PoV
  12. Well not in one sitting, mind you ^^ Although some of our other raid groups are fans of the "Raiding is like work and 8-hour workday is standard so quit the whining and pop another stim" kind of raiding
