As it is right now ppl are split in the opinion of the greatest dps spec's, though in general (and in my opinion) it looks like:
Singe target:
1: 38para (2H is 100dps infront of DW)
2: 26bm/33champ
3: 51champ
AoE:
1: 51champ(with champ-crystal)
2: 26bm/33champ
3: 38para
I know that some of the spec's that i'm linking here is already on the forum. But i've made a few alterations on some and it's nice to have them all in the same thread. And if u have some more spec's that u think could be usefull, then feel free to poke me and i'll try and fit it into this post.
38para 2H
The talent tree:
rift.zam.com/en/stc.html?t=1ckuL.EhMzV0bh.VexohAhcM.b
I've taken some of the DW talent's so it's more beneficial towards weaponswapping for ranged attacks (Explanation how to later on).
Before the patch it was also possible to go 6 into riftblade to get the bugged surging energy, but its been fixed. So to get u would have to take a bit too many points from champion in my opinion. And depending on your critrating u can switch a point around between: Grim satisfaction and Follow through. I would recommend 3/3 in GS until u reach 30% crit chance.
Macros:
AP:
#show rising Waterfall
suppressmacrofailures
cast Rising Waterfall
cast Power Strike
off GCD abilities:
#show Frenzied Strike
suppressmacrofailures
cast Turn the Blade
cast Frenzied Strike
cast Inescapable Fury
Finisher:
#show strike like iron
suppressmacrofailures
cast Strike like Iron
cast Fiery Burst
For AoE:
Just use Mighty Blow as AP-builder and depending on if u have the champ crystal. With it u just have to keep up Strike like iron, and spam Bladefury inbetween.
Without the crystal, your finisher rotation should be:
Strike like Iron -> Bladefury -> Fiery burst -> And back from the start again.
Crystal (this is meant if u have 4set):
If its an aoe fight, then use the Champion crystal with the reduced CD on bladefury. On single target fights, riftblade crystal would be the best, though it will only add around 25dps on your fiery burst, so it isnt the ultimate dps loss if u dont have it.
Buffs:
< 30% crit - Way of the Mountain, Storm Blade and Soldier's Bearing (for fights with no support classes use Focus Body aswell)
> 30% crit - Way of the Mountain, Storm Blade and Slayer's Bearing (for fights with no support classes use Focus Body aswell)
For those who wanna make it a bit more difficult and want to still do dps while running away or another situation where u have to be at range from your target.
There is a way to start using macro's for switching your weapons and ability-bars so u can start nuking the target at range.
Sharogy made a really nice guide for this purpose wich should make it easy to manage. All it requires is a few more macro's.:
