Adaliaya Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 If I had to decide only one I would go Watchman but top Sentinels respecc from boss to boss because different boss require different things. (Note, I'm far from "top" Sentinel" so I might be wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejarid Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 "Best" is subjective. Basing your raid spec decisions on dummy parses is never a good idea. Pick the spec you like the most and run with it; learn to adapt and adjust your strategy accordingly, and you'll do fine. My Sentinel is, always has been, and always shall be, Combat because I greatly enjoy the style and gameplay; and he has done just fine in DF/DP HM. I will, however, second Adaliaya in saying that the best players will swap on a fight-by-fight basis, especially since current content mechanics change boss to boss such that each spec has its own niche encounter(s). Single-target burn fights (like Nefra, Tyrans) will very heavily favor Watchman, while frenetic target-swap/add fights (like Brontes, Bestia) will favor Combat or Focus.

However, until they put in dual-spec feature I prefer not switching specs between bosses. It's a pain and carnage is much more fun than annihilation so I stick with that full time.
