Crane Flock

[vikingostby]

<p>After the gu32, i respec'd the wis line. One - to get the extra hp, and two - to get the final ability Crane Flock.</p><p>My question is this...</p><p>Better to use in conjunction with Knockout Combo, or wait til your done with the CA spam, and use only for the auto attack while waiting for CA's to refresh? Or does it matter at all?</p><p> Either way, i've noticed a huge difference in my dps while using this ability and am enjoying it tremendously. Let me know your 2c.</p><p>(words of wisdom: if your raid fails, and your feeling down, duel the main tank, & kick his [Removed for Content]. Always cheers me up)</p>

Aye same here, spam CA - the short retimers first and blow it of in the end with multi hit ae CA, then crane flock. And let me answer your question with a n00b question; Any of you pause between CA to get the auto attack in under Knockout Combo, is it better or worse ?

Crane Flock with CoB is just insance btw, you can almost be sure of getting aggro but it will put you pretty high on the parse list

The recovery time after using spells / CAs allows autoattacks to happen so you don't need to micromanage it. There is some cases where you can lose a miniscule amount of DPS by chain casting CAs, if your weapon is a within a certain delay range, but most of the time you won't notice the difference. But still, only auto-attacking with Crane Flock is not a bad idea since that's where it shines.

just depends on the length of the fight.  if it's a raid AE fight that's gonna be short, crane flock and CA between hits using a slow 2hander.  i use wurmslayer, so have plenty of time to knock out a CA between swings, it really does put out some nice numbers.
