Arcane - Room for improvements ?

Unread postby danksch Sat Sep 12, 2015 5:02 pm

Hey guys,

I'm kinda disappointed with my current Arcane performance.
Although I feel like I actually know what to do (been studying all the guides here and trying to follow everything), but compared to other people around my iLvl, I guess I'm underperforming (80k dps at now 716 iLvl with HC WF ToSW; I've seen some logs of others around 120k.)
I know Arcane is quite RNGish this tier, with MoD procs and especially T18 2pc procs, so it is natural some of the top logs are on the upper side of variance, but still, I want to make sure I'm not doing any mistakes.

I'm linking the last Zakuun fight my guild had (Zakuun being quite Patchwerkish aside from seeds, which I didnt have any in that try iirc), if some of you could be so kind and have a quick glance at my logs; thanks in advance!

EDIT: Just noticed the logs are in german; sorry for that, our guild logger has a German client, so I'll see to it that next time I'll log by myself!

I'm currently on my phone so I cant look in any great detail but one thing I see is you have very shallow burns. With HC WF trinket you should be making the most ogmf those burns but if you look at your burns vs AP usage it seems like AP is mostly over before you really start burning.

Are you dumping your AM's before piping AP and going into your burn?

First of all, thanks for answering, and secondly, yes, I am dumping every AM i have before going into AP.
Often, I found myself Evocating when AP has still 2-4 seconds left, so I decided to dump the AM I get off the first 1-2 AB I cast after going into AP. Maybe I should refrain from doing that.
