Hello chicks!!
With this post I hope to find a way to solve my problems, mainly due to the sharing and exchange with other moonkins.
I'm a moonkin, from day zero and so I know my class deeply (well enough to make me open a dedicated blog), I update myself and try to remain perfectly in place with my toon and with all game related aspects. So I try to balance the inability of temporal fulltime gameplay with a solid theoretical basis.
This is to introduce my problem ... my DPS.
As of the end of Cataclysm, but especially with Pandaria, my DPS has fallen heavily and I can't remedy it.
Please note: gear, statistics, lag, interface are all in place. My toon is well reforged, with a good gear, and well balanced. The problem may be in the way it's "controlled". Although I'm familiar with main rotations (open, burst, spam, types of AOE, etc ...), during chaotic fights I can't maintain proper control of all these aspects and therefore can't conclude a "full" rotation, or I "forget" to cast one starsurge (for example)... in short, I'm a human being (as we all are) with the "limits" that prevent me from being efficient but especially multitasking (able to treat all aspects of the fight while I have to move, dispel, avoid damages, change target, etc.).
As a result of these issues of rotation and / or motion, I find myself always among the last DPS in 10m raids, with guildmates above me with (usually) lower gear. I don't give a shit about the competition, but this is frustrating, and raid leaders (rightly) point me out.
What do you wonder? Tips, ideas and suggestions, please...
1) is it possible that DPS decreases A LOT following minor errors in the rotation or with a couple of spell not casted?
2) are you sure (as a result of the request in step 1) that there're no other problems?
3) how you bind your spells and how you manage to deal with the chaos of a fight as Horridon and in the meantime be able to DPS with the correct rotation? What advice do you have for distributing the spell on the keyboard, the mouse, etc..?
I'm really heartbroken but especially tired, because I have changed 100 reforges, massacred 1,000 times the dummies of Stormwind , read tons of logs and post around the web, writing emails, posts and articles about it, changed dozens of keybind combinations... all for nothing!! I cannot come out. Since I consider myself a "serious" person I can't accept to be druid CL, guild officer, theorycrafting blogger, an active member of the community of WoW, and at the same time consider myself (or being considered) a bad player because "despite the gear his DPS is not accettable"...
Before definitively surrender I would like to confront with other druids, and maybe evaluate solutions and ideas that I haven't addressed.
I can link some logs but you'll see exactly what I say above; often I can't make an exact rotation due to excessive movements. I have not yet found a good way to move and control my spells at the same time. If the cause of my low DPS was just the "disorder", I wonder if you've any suggestions on how to put everything in order, spells, keys, macros, etc. ...
Thanks to those who will have the patience to answer me and sorry for the WT (written in terrible english).
