Also yeah, missing HT in PVE is pretty rare.. on the current bosses. It last happened in DSU for me, but never since then.
That's why i said even in point blank range.
For me hittin HT is like 50/50 some times less, some friends were looking at it because they didn't believe me and when they saw this vs Hydras, Giants, Nagas; they couldn't tell me what was wrong with it.
But it's the first time someone tell me about races being also a factor.
Can you explain to me how the buff can be bigger than 10%? Also I will wait for your 3m video, which means a 25% increase from your current best.
HH favors ranged but do you forget Zerk and Ninja still do 33% more than slayer?
I don't understand why do you want to defend slayer by "pulling nice dps"? Define nice. 1M maybe nice when everyone else does 1.2M. It's not nice when everyone else does 1.6M.
Props to you, though, for sticking with slayer. I play many classes because one class bores me quickly.
25% Measured Slice
20% Overhand Strike
Up to 20% Heart Thrust (depending on resets)
10% UOHS
10% Evisc
10% Whirlwind
5% Knockdown Strike
So the buffs worth talking about:
Knockdown Strike 20% buff -> 20%x5% = 1% overall buff
Heart Thrust 10% buff -> 20%x10%=2% overall buff
Eviscerate 10% buff + 1.5x crit chance increases Eviscerate's average damage by ~50% -> 10%x50%=5% overall buff
Measured Slice 10% buff -> 25%x10%=2.5% overall buff
Measured Slice 1.1x crit chance (equivalent to roughly 8% increase in MS's average damage)-> 25%x8%=2% overall buff
Overpower usability buff - assume it applies to 2/3rds of Heart Thrusts, and provide ~50% total extra damage to it -> 2/3x50%x20%=6.7%
Adds up to about 19% in normal situations.
They also re-enabled high UOHS multipliers in RMHM (high UOHS are appearing in LKHM now, but still not RMHM).
So if all UOHS hits for 325% instead of the 120% normal multiplier, that's a potential 170% buff to UOHS -> 10%x170% = 17%
Since UOHS is rng, what you get is a buff between 0% and 17%.
So totaled, it's potentially more than a 35% buff, rng dependent of course. He still probably won't hit warrior numbers, but should be able to reach 3mil/s comfortably non-slaying.
Slaying, he could probably hit 4mil/s.
In addition to this, Because of the changes to fury strike and distant blade, my rotation will occur much faster than it is now. There are still times where i have to dodge out of my rotation midway because of boss movement. Now i can fit in more core skills before turns. [i will be using FS-> WW speed glyph post patch; which means more OHS and faster WW]
Additionally, because of these crit chance buffs, i SHOULD be able to go 3/2 and still have the same or higher overall crit chance; therefore increasing my DPS even more. Since almost all of my parses now are done using full crit setup.
Also about them reenabling the broken UOHS in RMHM... thats gross lmfao. RU Slayer UOHS makes me kinda salty
Uhm, how does Overpower give 6.7% more dps? You never use OP before? I don't understand or do i miss something? Maybe it will be casted a little faster, but 6.7% increase is way overestimated.
What do you mean by they re-enabled UOHS multipliers? Like 100% it will proc max multipliers ? Only if it's true then maybe slayer can be competitive.
Why only RU got it and not NA ? I saw some Ktera slayer videos and they mostly don't have max UOHS.
FS->WW glyph is very good for slaying runs but normal runs not so much. FS does no damage and the animation duration cancels the gain from faster WW. I don't think you will ever need Fury and DB to fire off more OHS because there are enough better skills.
If you switch to 3/2, you will have already nullified the buffed crit chance. I don't think simply switching to power will magically increase your dps, because slayer doesn't have any guaranteed crit skill. To make it simple : MS - Before buff crit 90% - > After buff 99% -> Switch to power back to 90%. Or in other words, 99% crit = 90% crit with more power.
Also i bet you don't want 3/2 in HH.
All that said, i estimate this class changes buff slayer's dps by 15%. Well it's something. Still a far cry from being competitive with other classes. Berserker/Reaper/Gunner also get more or less the same buff, which sadly makes Slayer stay at the bottom still.
It been known that Elin slayer HT have this issue. It a bit off form where u targeting. a little bit to the left side of ur aim. Also try not get too close to the target.
As far as MS, It should be 100% crit regardless of what ring setup you use, dont forget the triple crit chance glyph. That 10% crit chance increase is getting boosted by 3x.
And the 50% crit chance increase on Evis also supports this change.
Just wait and see. Going back and forth doesn't really matter in the end; we'll see once changes hit.
Ty, this would help me to clean faster my IoD daylies.
For that reason I was losing like 2-6 million damage on every bam there.
What I mean is that right now in RMHM, UOHS will always hit for its lowest multiplier (120%). After the Slayer changes, UOHS should be able to occasionally trigger the higher multipliers (150%, 175%, 200%, 250%, 275%, 300%, and 325%) like the patches before. Obviously it won't always give the 325%, but being able to access the higher multipliers will increase the average damage.
I never said that I was the best or even that great, but hitting constantly a mil+ is better than people seem to think a slayer can do.
Well I suppose it's pretty bad. But yeah BHS leaving warrior tanks in the dust and making holding aggro a joke was the final straw for me.
I miss the days in AINM when warriors could actually tank.
