The Magician's Tower

I'll agree that the simplest way to ensure getting max JOM is to have communication with the rest of the caster types. We've got a channel for nukers/CC casters, and it's as simple as typing "host inc now" when you're about to launch host, and making sure that everyone goes in a rotation to ensure maximum effectiveness.

thanks for the ideas, I will probably try several of them!

I used this last night to some great results. My aim was to hit 5K dps, but ended up just over 5.9K in 189 secs on a Rott burn. It could have been more too, but got caught twisting and lost pet to enrage as well as I was using the air pet instead of water, so could have squeezed out a few hundred more. Also accidentally hit P mid fight and it lagged me out for about 10 seconds while it brought up the stupid web page window. This is with mostly pre-MMM gear.
I'm occasionally #1, usually top 3 on our parses and I was pretty sure that would get me #1, but I was inched out by one of our wizzies at exactly 6K dps.

Wizzies have a HUGE advantage on that fight, b/c there is no real good corner on that fight. On that fight your best pet is probably to use fire so u don't need to keep repositioning water pet behind Rott. The lack of a corner is generally why Rott isn't considered a great burn named.

I use a slightly different method to achive the same effect. I just make a hot key that casts my weave spells in order with very short pause times.

Weave button.
/pause 2, /cast 1
/pause 2, /cast 2
/pause 2, /cast 3
/pause 2, /cast 4
/cast 5

I prefer this method since I already have both sets of key bindings set.

wire wrote:Repercussions extend to things like Twelfth Night superimposed upon regular heals, where you can press 1 key and if your target is low enough, the game will cast the emergency heal (since it has a target restriction) or otherwise cast a regular heal.

While this seems to work with my mage nukes, it does not seem to work using cleric's twelfth night spell.

On short burn fights I elminiate Ramp..waste of time...Short fight I burst fire nukes, but if they are a long fight go with servent. I have parsed 2k more dps on short fights with no ramp pet as with him.

can u plz post the numbers and what not on the AA's like first spire

im also trying to set up a hot key that will cast servant of ro, host of elements, ramp pet and jolt if i can get the numbers for the aa's will be much appreciated
