Tak'theritrixs shoulderpads rotation

[Avendil 0]

Hey,

I have just managed to get my hands on the legendary shoulders, wich I use with the legendary helmet and t21 set. I also have a 965 horn of valors.

I have a hard time accomodating to the new rotation and my logs show low and very disparate ilvl% results (from 15 to 70 %)

Logs from last raid session :

https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/a3fPK8YVA2GLQnw6/

My engage is Army, Desease --> 2 strikes to get to 6-8 stacks --> apocalypse --> horn of valor --> Dark arbiter --> Dark transformation, then spam death coil.

I don't know how I am supposed to best maximise the use of Dark transformation and Apocalypse in the 2 minutes time frame given by Dark Arbiter's cooldown. The idea is obvioulsy to have transformation up for each DA proc, but should I delay DA to use one more dark transformation ? Should I hold on transformation and use it with Apocalypse ?

Any advice would be deeply appreciated. I was starting to feel right with Unholy recently and the shoulderpads threw my balance off ^^

Get your hands on a CoF, even an 890 will be beneficial for syncing up the CD's. I am still running a 890 since it lines up valkyr with Apocolypse.  The only burst you can get between phases is using your Dark Transformation between the 2min cd's.  Other than that your gear and Talents look good, maybe go for cold heart, but that wasn't part of your question.

You should reapply your virulent plague right before you use Dark Arbiter so you won't have to reapply it during your burst window. Also, to answer your question about Dark Arbiter and Dark Transformation, If you properly use DT on CD, every other cast should line up with your DA casts. Of course, raiding is not always that simple. I like to wait for DT before I use DA. The true key is using DT off CD though, so it lines up perfectly with your DA. Hope that helps!
