Doing the math in writing is actually really good advice. To not do this once, or a few times as we change specs, when we know it helps us maximize our DPS, is - in my humble, and no doubt very common, opinion - ill-advised. :) Great guide, Deltia. Thank you, and looking forward to watching more of your material.

Super informative video that I think is presented in a way that ANYONE can understand!

Two small tips you may not know about, I noticed from the vid. You can desummon your pets in the character menu by right clicking on them. Useful to get them to stop fighting. And you can hold ctrl or shift to select multiple damage outputs in combat metrics. It wi automatically show you all of the dps and other stats of those outputs combined.

Good tips, important to note is to let your dots finish and not renew them (if you can avoid it) before they expire. As things like elemental wall will explode at the end of it's duration, however if you recast before this happens, your loosing a 10k hit.

I’m a noob. What plug-in are you using to see your actual damage? I couldn’t read that screen in the vid playback. I loved that your video was focused and to the point. Thank you!

It's the add-on "Combat Metrics". It is a very worthwhile add-on.

This is so basic information and I never did it like this. Big thanks! I am playing as a vampire stage 4 with simmering frenzy - my goal was to add free damage (twilight tormentor, slottable buffs) and necessary dots and then use the cheap spammable. For me it keeps the rotation simple and reliable. Your approach might be harder to manage (static rotations may cost more resources - dynamic rotations with many dots/temporary buffs, which run out at different times and will interfere with each other, need a whole priority list), BUT the dps logically has to be higher and I never saw it that way.

Great video and amazing info for all players. However, are you also calculating pet damage? How much of that damage is cause by your pet?

if i remember correctly.. dots and pets give 30-40% total damage. 40-50% from light/heavy attacks. last 20-30% combined spammables, ults, executes. On that note, there are sets out there buffing light/heavy attacks multiple times over.. while dots,pets,spammables,executes,ults.. mostly balanced, few options even at top for improvement. Could continuously crit 50k+ heavy attack without resource drain.. Spamables get maybe half that, constant resource drain. Dots need both bars used, precise timer micro management. Just a pen resto heavy CP1170.. dropping in my two pennies :)

Yes, sensei!

will elemental blockade (for instance) end unfinished, if i cast force bolt over it, one sec later, while the former is still ticking down damage?

To paraphrase. It's comparing "10 force pulses" vs "1 lightning flood + 9 force pulses" assuming 1 cast per second. Noones going to sit there doing nothing while lightning flood ticks. It's about what gives the most damage in a single cast while you are doing 1 cast per second. Great video mate! This should help a lot of new players.

Just curious, i see many périple running away to have the pet stop attacking, is there a reason to do this instead if manually controlling the pet and telling it to stop?

Actually really useful video not just another here's how to weave

FIRST 👍❤ Got the clip out the same day, BOSS

like the vid but you need to fix the quality to blurry

My favorite spammable is Brawler, because the damage shield is pretty puny (It's still a Spamina shield) but since it's a spammable, when it pops, it pops right back up. I don't really even think about it. I know I could get more DPS with a higher damage strike in that slot, but pretty much everything in my bar is multi-purpose. That's what the Blitzerker build is all about: Get 2, or 3 useful side effects out of every cast, like Hurricane. It's an AoDoT, a mobilizer, and Damage Mitigation all in 1. Brawler is just Damage Mitigation, and a TWIMC in front of me for weenie whacking. However, having that shield up ultimately means fewer heals. (My primary heal is Stampede with Critsurge up.) Which means more sustain for the whole party, and a more streamlined rotation in DPS. (It's Bow 2H, BTW. So, I can Tank&Spank, but I can also reach out and touch someone without charging out of position.)

@TRG29338

That hurt to read

I haven't been raiding yet, but there's one thing I would like to understand. How the hell do you get people with over 100K DpS tooltip when your bigest hit deal at most 19K over time. I understand there are debuffs, buff, crit chance, etc. But honestly, I don't get it how you can quintuple your damage numbers on a target dummy. Makes me wonder if those addons actually calculate damage correctly.

if maximizing dps is important then why use lightning flood over liquid lightning?

You need to think: - Sometimes, AoE improve DPS insanely (with 5+ enemies, 1k dmg AOE is better than 4k single hit) - Minions, they dont need to be cast and use attacks while you attack - DoTs are not always better, sometimes their total damage is lower than of other your spells - some spells deal no damage BUT they provide f.e. spell damage bonus - light attack with weapons seems to me like free move (i can light attack with staff for minor damage, but then i can instantly cast a spell) - some morphs may cause effects that are not obvious - crystal shard seems like an unwise choice due to 0,6 cooldown, but when morphed, it may provide second attack that deals more damage AND is cast instantly - and yea... passives. Often they are hidden in unrelated skilltrees (f.e. Armor passives may improve DPS of Mage).

Returning player here, did they take out the animation cancelling finally? Having to do that put me off the combat.

I use: 1- heal exclusive 2- area damage (NOT AOE) as first atack and weaken enemies 3- damage with heal % gain 4- main damage spamable 5- AOE damage to compliment 4 No complaints since I stgarted using it that way

This isn't exactly news breaking, but good info to new comers. This plus light weaving and hybrid tweaking and everything is possible.

If it is true only cp and maxed gear is enough that's trial gear and also meta, I'm afraid i give up. I use pots,buff foods like the eye bowl for my mag build and honestly, that's all I'm gonna do rn. This stuff gives me stress. I did insane animation cancelling yesterday with my Stamblade with th setup I'd use in trials or normally and the skills and idk man. Maybe i missed something?

@Deltiasgaming

2 жыл бұрын

You should be well over 20k if you're following meta loadouts. Make sure you are using a trials dummy, trials parse food with stam/stam recovery no health. You can also keep it simplier if needed and start adding stuff for more dps. But if you're using bis gear from trials you should be at 70k pretty easy.

Im still surprised that no one has pointed out the fact that there is a limited time window to use your spamable within a rotation. Forexample, if your first dot lasts 12 sec, then you have about 11 sec worth of actions to apply your other combat skills and spamable until that first one needs to be reapplied. Also, you need to allow time for any mechanic/rotating needed to stay alive. Filling both bars with nothing but buffs/dots means your casting 1 rotation for a solid 10 sec straight. By then you might be able to get 1 or 2 cast of a spamable before recasting everything. As you said, dots do more dmg per cast, but your spamable does more dmg per HIT. If you can cast your spamable once per sec, then compare the DPS of the spamable to the dmg per TICK of a dot. Not 1 sec of dmg vs 10 secs of dmg. What your saying holds true to the value of dmg per cast or dmg per resource spent. If you were trying to explain how to find out if a dot/buff is worth it per cast, then you want to subtract your total dmg of the duration of the dot cast while using your spamable by the total dmg of just using your spamable for an equal duration.(note that your basically just casting 1 more spamable to replace the cast of the dot. Channels require extra casts too.) The difference will tell you how much more/less dmg that specific cast nets you vs the cast of that 1 extra spamable. Dont get me wrong, your providing great information. Just wanted to toss in some help.

That's when you use a spammable until it's time to refresh dot abilities. All I see is everyone going "Yeah! Right! Absolutely! Awesome!", and I just sit here like "....? what...?".

Obligatory algorithm comment

You prolly did 6 min so you could get the 5 min minimum, but you could have explained this in two minutes. Your dots snd aoes need to always be up and in between while their running so your spam or rebuff but make sure your dots snd aoes are ALWAYS up and running. Every second they are down you are losing thousands of dps….ppl gripe and gripe about how it’s weaving that does it, snd yes weaving does increase your dps, but you can suck at weaving but as long as you manage your dots aoes and buffs correctly, you’ll make the count whether you can master weave or not

To be honest all of this information is in the top 6 posts when you google "improve dps eso".... If you have been trying for years to improve your damage and you comment that this video "really helped you finally" you just havnt even tried to improve yourself.... I have found over 10 posts going back 4 years that have all of this info lol.

Theirs no such thing actually as better DPS in ESO, all it is is a measurement of potential in your attacks, like if you have a character with mega massive DPS and you put a bullshit player in playing skill behind it, you wont get very many results even more than an ESO newbie does, the best DPS methods are button/keyboard key rythym practices " NOTE: THIS IS NOT BUTTON MASHING, DO NOT CONFUSE THIS AT ALL "(Can create faster aggro and depictive anger fighting to overland, lesser, and some easy mid range enemies and bosses), The Blood Scion skill is the best DPS in the game, the Fungal Grotto gear sets are better for DPS like Hundings and Gladiator(I dont guarentee these sets for all playing styles or player interest though, they just are the rag tag DPS sets to use), the werewolf can do a bit better it depends most of it is Maelstrom Arena for werewolves just simulation stuff mostly to show your character for, they either play the game or they suck.

I'm confused... so it's not a good idea to cast something with a longer-term/multiple seconds to tick-down effect damage window...like elemental blockade...and then cast a full instant damage hit over it? are you saying it makes no sense to cast anything over it, one second later, while it's still ticking down? I know you're a pro at this game/ And I'm definitely not...I'm just trying to understand what I think I'm hearing.

@PapaDeusVult

What he's basically saying is that you will most likely begin with buff and debuff skills/spells that have a very long duration, which will last you at least 2 combat rotations. With those buffs up, you start applying your damage-over-time skills like Elemental Blockade, Daedric Curse, or whatever. Anything that deals damage over a duration. Once all of those damage-over-time effects are all up, THAT is when you cast your main spammable. Because while those damage-over-time spells are going, you're basically ramping up the DPS you do by adding bursts of your main spammable for the remaining duration of your damage-over-time skills. This usually means you can cast your main spammable 4-5 times depending on spells on your mainbar that have an 'activation' component like Crystal Fragments which has a chance to become instantly cast. And the above statement isn't yet putting into consideration that you can weave/insert light attacks between casts of your main spammable, which results in even more DPS. When all of your damage-over-time effects wear off, you re-apply them again, and end that rotation with your main spammable. Again. By the time you've done two full combat rotations, your buffs/debuffs will most likely have run out. Re-apply them again. Then do your combat rotation, starting with damage-over-time effects, and ending with your main spammable. Again. Hope that helps

Elemental blockade did 19k, yes, Force Pulse only did 10k - but you can use Force Pulse quite a few times over the duration of elemental blockade, orb, lightning and all that. As I said, I don't get it.

@spanishinquisition8678

You can use force pulse more times over the duration of elemental. Deltia is talking about how long it takes to cast something. So, for each cast of elemental you get 19k and force pulse gives you 10k. In anything but a really short fight it would be better to cast elemental because it gives you more damage (not instantly) for the cast time. You have to think 'what damage am I getting per cast time'. Now imagine, you are doing 1 cast per second. You have 10 seconds. You cast 10 force pulses, you get 100k damage (10 X 10k). Well, if you cast elemental (lasts 10 seconds) you do 19k over the duration and then you cast 9 force pulses for another 90k ( 9 x 10k) Notice you have casted 10 abilities again. This time you did 109k damage over the 10 seconds. I hope this helps.
