Fire single target dps

Unread postby tonytaponi Sun Mar 13, 2016 10:19 pm

Hi everyone!

I am looking for help with fire. This is my last log for single target boss - Zakun, I was assigned to cover waves so I did nothing but dps:
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Gr ... slate=true" target="_blank

My armory: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/% ... %B8/simple" target="_blank

I suppose my problem is into opening and combustion accumulating, but I can't find what exactly is wrong: rotation, stats/equip or something else.

My trinkets are Sandman's pouch and Shadowmoon Insignia. I have 99% crit chance for fireball/pyroblast with trinket proc and about 3100 mastery buffed.

Openning:
1) Common rotation until trinket procs and heatingup + pyroblast! buffs occurs.
2) place PC.
3) Fireball + pyro, fireball + pyro, pyro, pyro.
4) combustion + infernoblast

Mostly once you get the rotation down it's all about getting your trinket to proc quickly and hopefully getting a phoenix on your first pre pyro, also you really want to stand 18 yards from where your crystal will be placed and start running at your crystal on the last 2 pyros, you need to be quicker on the rotation, combusted a little slow. Also you really want to be playing cold snap at all times playing fire, dragon's breathe does a ton of damage and having an extra one boosts your dps quite a bit. You had a really really weak combustion which makes your damage significantly lower then it should be. Your mastery is a bit low, also you should replace fireball on opener to scorch, like I said it's all about getting your trinket to proc as soon as possible. Nothing else matters at the beginning. I'm not exactly sure what your crit rating is in-game but looks a little high, you want 47% at the max and get as much mastery as you can after that. I also personally use a reset=10 castsequence macro for dragon's breathe/coldsnap/dragon's breathe.

You gain second ring buff on 2:02, and your second crit proc on 2:10, so there is no second combustion on boss at all, to minimize chance for such a bad luck just use scorch instead of fireball if there is ring usage ahead (in 4-5 seconds).
Or, to completely negate random or in case of delayed rings, switch to http://eu.battle.net/wow/ru/item/110007/dungeon-mythic" target="_blank, its Shadowmoon Burial Grounds drop - second boss, there is also similar trinket with strength from third boss.
You can't get this trinkets with personal loot.

Can you share your
reset=10 castsequence macro for dragon's breathe/coldsnap/dragon's breathe.
?
