7.3 Enh Macro Using Earthen Spike 1.8 million DPS

hulta · December 13, 2017, 9:56am

[quote quote=55928]I have a Logitech G13 gaming keyboard, so I’m only using the built in template of that device to program keys for functions. In this case I program the G5 key to work as the numbers 1, 3, and 2 keys, and rename the single key stroke to (e) It’s set to press 1, 3, 2 in a continuation loop at 50 ms on depress, and stop the rotation at the next key depress. I’ve set the macro on my hotbar ingame, and assigned the (e) primary and number (2) secondary key for the number 2 position on the hot bar, and in the number 1 position I’ve placed StormStrike, and in the number 3 position I’ve placed Rockbiter. So in this fashion, StormStrike takes priority over macro rotation, and then Rockbiter takes priority over macro rotation, and if both of those are on cd then the macro steps through it’s functions. I’ve had the most potential with dps playing in that fashion. Case in point, at my current Ilvl and gear(952)sims put me at 1.4 mil dps on Heroic Garothi. I was pulling 1.4mil dps on Heroic Garothi when I was Ilvl 945. I’m just assuming I’ll pull more with the increase in Ilvl and t21 items, and I’ll update tomorrow once I’ve killed him for the week. Good luck.

Really like that you are sharing your success with GSE.
I have one question regarding the use of Crash Lightning. This shouldn’t be used in single target if I am correct only to charge Alpha Wolf (even if Alpha Wolf is not needed for pure single target?)?
Or am I missing something with the use of Crash Lightning in the Macro?

Let me know how you play it if you use some other macro for single target.

Thanks.

Forgot to ask, do you also you this for pure AOE rotation?

Jack · December 13, 2017, 8:19pm

On the AOE question, yes I use the same macro. With the t20 4 set AOE on enhance was pretty great, but the t21 set is more about single targ, so for now when I really want to pump out more aoe I use the Emalon’s charged Core with the Smoldering Heart Gloves, but honestly that’s not that big of a deal. I enjoy the niche of putting out sustained, solid, constant single target dps. As for crash in the rotation, I’m still using two pieces of the T20 set, so crash is still in the macro to keep up the crit buff shammies get from casting it, and I also have crash bound to a hot key that I can spam on my mouse when I just want to dump some mael or if there’s AOE opportunity for it. I’ll have to see how it performs after I get a full T21 set, but really? I’ve been having so much maelstrom with this build that it has not been a problem what so ever on dumping a lot of crashes.

Jack · December 14, 2017, 1:04pm

Alas, no T214 set yet, but I thought I’d touch base with live performance vs sim. Sims put me at 1.4mil dps for Garothi Heoic, and actual dps was 1.62 million. I was 75th percentile according to logs, which I’m sure I can clean up with better mechanic management, and I’m sure I’m not hitting the upper 80’s and 90’s at this point due to missing 1 piece to make my T4 set. 15% increase in damage should be pretty significant.

jeremy-southard · December 15, 2017, 12:51am

What sim are you using? I use raidbots and it puts me at 1.8 mil on heroic garothi with only 949 ilvl. With the smoldering heart and elemental ring. That’s using the macro in og post with feral spirits removed from it. 2 set tomb, 2 set arg. Of course I’m barely doing 1.5m if I’m lucky.

Jack · December 15, 2017, 8:10am

Mr. Robot.

nazz · December 15, 2017, 1:17pm

i generally use Raidbots even tho i have a sub at mr robot.

@Tstone did u ever remove rockbiter from the base macro or do you leave it in there. Guild has switched me to resto for a while so have not been doing much enh except for world quests.

    },
  },
}

is what I’m currently using. Stormstrike and Rockbiter are on sep keys and fire off as priority over the macro on availability. The only problem I’ve had at all, and it’s not really a problem per say, is that sometimes on lucky rng where I have stormstrikes and windstorms forever, the buff’s for fire, earth, and crash will fall off, but that just means massive burst dps so it’s not really a loss as such as a trade off for higher potential dps.

clipper · December 16, 2017, 3:57pm

Imported this but can’t get it to work. Doesn’t even fire off at all…

Jack · December 16, 2017, 5:59pm

The code is correct, and if it imported to your gs it’s correct, so…I’d say something on the operator side and hot keys?

clipper · December 16, 2017, 6:01pm

Not sure - I was able to use several other versions from this thread but not your latest… I’ll look a little closer and see if I can figure it out

hulta · December 16, 2017, 7:24pm

Wanted to share some success with a variation I found.
I am currently 942eq with 2pc TOS tier and 2pc Antorus tier with leggys Eye of the twisting nether and Spiritual journey.

I am using talents 3213113 to get the frost buff on the leggy ring.

I have removed some from the macro I am using that I am either spamming with Razer Synapse or just using separately.

On Auto I have the Razer punch order on my buttons 2, 4, 3, 5.
2: Stormstrike
4: Rockbiter
3: The macro
5: Earthen Spike

Feral Spirit and Crash Lightning I manage on my own on separate keys manually.

The reason for this when I go through Wow analyzer is that the macro isn’t casting ES of CD all the time which it should.

When I changed this and made ES separate my dps went up.
My sims according to Raidbots on 5min fight patchwork says 1,47M dps and my actual test on Dummy was 1,44M dps
At dummy I am fully buffed as per the raidbots simc are counting on.
The Macro I am using is below:

@Krille
Not sure about the leg boots but ill give the macro a shot with the frostband and ES on a seperate key and see
maybe some one can put it in box code so it can be exported

hulta · December 17, 2017, 9:40am

Yeah, the leg boots I wear in absence of better legendary. I only have the ring and the boots so far for leggys.

Parrot · December 18, 2017, 9:30am

@ Krille,
When pasting from GS you can use the “code” button above the post window, it will wrap up your macro nice and neat so others can copy and try it out.

After you paste it the way you did it’s difficult to import.

Just FYI

Will try yours out as well.
Just to clarify, are you using the same spells on the buttons as I do? SS, RB, Macro and ES?

EDIT:
So I tried yours out and went away from the Hailstorm talent and went AS instead with the same setup with the razer as before SS, RB, Macro and ES on separate buttons and not making any use of the frost proc of the ring and I am actually getting better results. My simc puts me at 1,49m dps and I am pulling fully buffed with hero and pot what raidbots takes into account and getting between 1,45m - 1,51m (due to rng with procs ofc).

Forgot my stats weighs before and they are:
Crit: 20%
Haste: 43%
Mastery: 71%
Vers: 10%

nazz · December 20, 2017, 3:25pm

yup i am using the same 4 button set up at a .100 delay on razor. got a few upgrades last night and im up to 1.5 unbuffed

what do you have your delay set at ?
