![]() Sup I am intrested in how much dps a 70 wiz should be pumpin out in a raid... in solo and in group encounters? sometimes i have no tank or troub. heck some times no fury... So how much does our dps depend on the rest of the group? for the agro managment and for dps output. in group encounters are you guys waiting 10% for aoes? and when are u getting 1600dps? I am not talking about casting Glacial Wind then Fusion but suptained dps for master i expect a 15% to 20% increase in damage. I have masters for Ball of Lava, Iceshield, protoferno, Irradiate, Cease and Glacial Wind & Electrifying Flash I looked at the casting times and damage and think i know what spell do the most damage. Ice Nove,Ball of lave, Irradiate and Glacial Wind But how much dps are u wizs doing? and how?

Well solo and group content dies so fast that it is hard to suggest an appropriate dps for it. I am not overly concerned on agro vs. solo/group content either (with maybe the exception of nizara), so dont tend to hold back too much as the mobs are pretty [Removed for Content]. Raid dps is highly dependent on the person behind the toon, and I have little problem sustaining 1600 single target dps on a several minute fight. Group dps is highly depended on how many mobs you have in the encounter. Having said that, a few things come to mind that will certainly improve your dps: Your raid setup A good tank - that knows how to hold agro. Dirge / Coercer / Scout hate onto the MT as needed (shouldn't need all 3) to increase their agro. Dirge and coercers increase MT agro by approx 40% ea. Troubador in your group - 40% hate reduction, damage procs, power regen, +spell crits, + casting times, Fury and/or Inquisitor in group make me happy too. Furies are obvious ... Inqs have a nifty ability that reduces your casting timers by 50% odd for 24 secs. Debuffs Debuffs on raids will make a huge difference. With sufficient debuffs you will be looking at 25k+ crit ice novas and fusions. Make sure that everyone is debuffing. Make sure you have a brigand or 2

legs of mo and forgot where the wand comes from but combined they add anywhere from 1-2k power in procs per min. add in capped flowing thought at 105 and you have 2-3k power per min, combine that with heart/shart/vital conversion and you have 3-4k power per minute, and vioala you have sustained dps. my personal best without these items (except for xhavis gown) was 1150 dps on an 8 minute fight. and almost 800 dps on a 17 minute fight (damned azlid!) still had 40% power left too. but neleso pretty much summed it up.

![]() yah as soon as you get those power procing items its really easy to keep your power up, specially between manastone 1 - 2, dracomancer gloves, FT gear, your own power pumping spells, and regen in your group, power seems like a lot less of a problem. and if ya got power, you can keep cranking out the dps heh

The only sampling periods I consider valid for power regen procs in terms of FT are between the beginning and end of sustained spellcasting. The only fights long enough for that are the Harla Dar add burn, 3 Princes, and possibly MO. That in mind, I calculated X'Haviz's Gown of Glory for me to be roughly FT20 and the Wand of the Tempest FT27. Not the Fount of Everlasting Power per se but light years beyond the Godking weapon and any pathetic endgame FT robe.

Group setup is by far the biggest factor. For example if you only have a dirge in MT group and no troub around your dps will suck or you'll die a ton. Throw in a troubador a coercer in the mt and the right healer for a caster group and watch ur dps sky rocket to top of the raid or very close.

![]() Because you're calling help on the adds. It's almost impossible to actually count the regen'd power, so we don't do it that way. You go to the log file, add up the procs during the fight, assume that the average amount of the regen was done per proc, and average out the sum regen over the length of the fight. FT outside of combat is irrelevant, so we ignore the fact that the robe is giving you the FT0 equivalent at that time. |

![]() I am trying to figure out why the 2 wizards and 1 warlock that roll with us on our raids NEVER get above 600 DPS. Usually, around 500. our scouts are rockin 1k-1500 DPS. A: is there something I am missing in the parse? EG. is there a pet i need to parse too or something B: they claim to have all adept 3 at least, and one of them is geared in nearly all fabled. When asked to up the DPS, though, they merely start pulling aggro and die. What can I do>?? Id like to see this 1600 damage, but that seems far off.
Ankha, AB |

I've raided with 0 hate reduction buffs and have been able to do 1500 dps without pulling agro. I've also parsed 1K dps fights using only dots....(that means without using ice nova, fusion, sunstrike, ball of lava, incapacitate or ice flame) spamming irradiate, surging tempest, protoferno, forge of ro, firey convultions, rending icicles, glacial winds, shocking flash, and meleing the mob with grizzlefazzles equipped.
If that doesn't work for you, then try putting a troubador in the same group as the mages, and playing his hate reduction song (40%), and if that doesn't work, give each mage amends, or moderate, and as a last resort have a coercer give each one harmonious link. if that still isn't working, farm the tenerborus tangle ring event on temple grounds to get each one a skywatchers robe and make them wear it. if that still isn't working, have each one start casting a hex doll on the dps call, and start dps'ing 8 seconds after the rest of the raid but go full burn, (can still acheive 12-1400 ext dps like this but with lower chance of agro) and finally if that isn't working make them only use dots and use concussive before casting ball of lava, and ceace before casting incapaciate.

after a crit glacial winds, and frigid gift procs going off on all of them, along with the hate from forge of ro. and precision of the meistro was up along with a few dissonant note procs with synergisim procs. i remember seeing char and / or burning affliction go off too. this all happened in about 9 seconds, and i got agro off only one, the sk MT fd me and i ended up staying down for about 20 seconds to ensure i wouldn't get agro when i poped back up, only did 2.2k dps on that one, I wonder what it would of been had i not been fd'd for so long.

I had a similar setup on a raid recently in a t7 raid zone. I was normally able to do 1200ish dps (before i died) but on this raid i was around 1700 most of the night. (i have one post 50 master spell the rest adept 3) The assasin was 1100ish (my guild) the conj was 900ish (he was touting how he had master pets, this conj was from a different guild) The wiz was doing 1200ish but after a few parses with me she logged to her healer.(partly because we needed one more and it was either me or her, we both have high level alt healers, my guild)
Most of the night I got tells about how i should be nurfed and how 900dps was great for an conj and my class should not be getting anywhere near that dps. We all had the same agro reduction and the tank never lost agro the whole night.
I can imagine if i had broke the 2k dps mark there would have been a huge melt down. I was told they were gonna do an emailing campaign to nurf my class at 1700ish dps.
Good job on representing your class, I think most wizzies expect to be top dps with no effort and have convinced some others they are right to think this. |

and 900 dps for a m1 pet + conj is pitiful, I've seen the pets do 600 dps on their own, and the conj break 800 when separated on the parse.

its pretty rare when I have all of them (only happened 3x so far) On our last Labs raid I only had Harmonious link (23%) from the coercer for de-agro, had to use conccusive, ceace, skywatchers, and garg pet, to try to keep from dying. I ended up making it to vyemm with about 5 deaths(mostly from MT saving my butt with FD and rescue). MT was holding agro at 1500 or so dps untill we got to the mobs just before the corsolander, and taunts were getting resisted, then it was all guess work (and deathage) one fight I pulled agro at 800, another 1300, /shrug. no troub and no illusionist on that one either. In lyceum last night for the most part I just had amends, the coercer was charming mobs on the charmable encounters so I lost harmonious link. Still hit a couple 2K fights with only amends. No troub and no illusionist for that raid. Me and the conj were really working hard to beat each other on this raid. He got top parse a few times too. Ended up with the zone wide parse at 1150 for the night. My dps started to drop after we killed essence of fear because the raid started to dwindle down to 3 groups and the mobs there have 1-1.8mil hp so they were lasting 3-5 minutes, and I had to start using heart/shard/vital conversion, and even cardinal intro on myself to keep up my power. I have found that on reall really long fights you can sustain close to 800 dps if you use manastone, vital conversion, cardinal intro, and shard when ever they refresh, and only cast protoferno, forge of ro, surging tempest, rending icicles and ice nova/fusion when they refresh.

![]() heh we dont have sk/paladin in guild, so no amends at 100% of raids. also corcer always using all his dps buff's for melee classes. same situation with illusionist (but sometimes i have synergizm :smileyhappy: ). but i still have a troub ing grp in 90% of raids so the situation is not so bad PS Do you remember your fight times on mobs in lyce? for example on 2 and 3 droag encounters and on single.

look at it this way, on the top end of the scale auto attack will generally hit for 300-400 dps(when parsed over a long sample period like a zone wide parse) with haste/dps buffs which is about 100-150 more dps from auto attack If the wizard is doing 1000 dps and pulling agro, giving him 23% hate reduction would allow him to do 1230 dps. if the wizard is doing 1500 dps it jumps to 1845 dps, and so on and so forth. Hate reduction for a wizard directly correlates to a straight dps increase. As for synergysim at m1 it can account for 7-8% of my dps on a single parse, and zonewide it can account for 3-4% of my zone dps, considering i can do 1400+ dps for a zone parse that makes synergisim give me roughly 55 dps increase on the zone parse and single parses it can inflate it by as much as 200 dps. I have the parse info at home and I'll check it later today and post the parses your looking for.

![]() Here's some of the lyceum parses you requested funia, 2 mob group minion and trainer, Allies: (02:37) 1328162 | 8459.63 [HH Illu-Ice Nova-14447] Here was one of the 3 mob encounters Allies: (01:51) 1024083 | 9225.97 [HH Illu-Fusion-16002] here was the essence of fear single target named Allies: (03:40) 2007513 | 9125.06 [HH Illu-Ice Nova-20640]
here was the eye of thul's with 1.8 mil hitpoints and less than 3 groups in the raid. (hence the long encounter time) Allies: (05:19) 1904275 | 5969.51 [HH Illu-Ice Nova-15585] and the other one Allies: (04:23) 1861080 | 7076.35 [HH Illu-Fusion-15749]

Not to put you out, but could you label the classes with the names. at least the DPS. Also, when you parse yourself, do you count the proc damage that you buff other classes with as your own or thiers?

parsers do not pick up damage proc buffs put on other classes, the only one it does pick up and give to the wizard is Ice sheild because soe decided to screw wizards over by making them look better on a parse, and removing its function as a hate generation tool with lu24.

My point in the second question is this: if you are personally doing 1000 dps and your whole raid is doing 9000 or less, then something isn't right. Hard to say what it is if you won't even comment on it. If I'm doing 1200+ dps, then my raid is doing 15000 or so, that's all. |
