skiggs 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Hey All – I’m trying to improve my dps when compared to other similar ilvl WW monks. I compared gear, stats, and rotation to other monks and I believe I am performing them correctly, but my dps is lacking. I prepot and pot during bloodlust. I did notice when I compared to other similar geared WW monks on Warcraft logs they do more crit than me (like 8-10%) on most of their attacks. Not sure if because they have a crit trinket or not, but it is pissing me off not know why! Here is a recent heroic Gruul log where I did 24k DPS: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/YRfxbATH6rB9Jphz#fight=9&type=summary&source=29 Compare this to a different similarly geared WW monk (29k DPS): https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/vn6dY2tQFB7MgpPj#fight=27&type=damage-done&source=20 RSK has 99% uptime on boss Tiger Power was 95%, so that should be a bit higher… I ran simulation craft and it says I should be doing 30k DPS on a patchwork style fight. My toon’s armory: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/kargath/Quatch/advanced Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.

Lifts 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2015 The main difference I saw between you and the other monk was that you never really used chi wave. I believe using chi wave on cooldown is a dps increase overall. Logs showed it added 1.6k dps to the other monks overall dps. In regards to the crits I noticed two things, first off the other monk has a crit enchant on secondary weapon, which might make a slight difference. The biggest difference however was the fact that you probably didn't have crit buff in raid. Comparing the logs it looked like your party wasn't 9/9 buffed.
