    I ran with a group today and the Druid was giving literally no might and no fury. I mean actually none. Like might output 1.38 (median is 78.56 on gw2 Raidar) and 0.00% fury. How is that even possible? You can pretty much afk on Druid and put out more might and fury than that.

    With our current configuration (3 healer+2 tanks/chronos+BS) we can only have 4 scourges. My impression is that not all our current dpsers have scourges so we'd have to shuffle around a bit.

    This was posted recently by Nike. They basically abuse epi bounce, which means they have less mechanics to deal with. I'd like to try this which means we would need more dpsers to have geared and practiced Scourges.

    Updated Copperhead Squad DPS benchmarks

    Hey guys. I've been shamed into updating these by Vivid ( grumble grumble). No magic here, just math. These are the overall numbers for a comparison to arcdps logs. If you want to submit screen shots, I will compare them to the rotation videos.

    Power

    Staff Weaver: 31.7

    Spellbreaker: 30.5

    DPS Chrono: 28.9

    Rifle Holo: 28.8

    Sword Holo: 28.7

    Sword Weaver: 28.4

    Virtues DH: 28.3

    Deadeye: 26.6

     

    Condi

    Mirage 30.6

    DPS Berserker 29.6

    Stanceshare Soulbeast: 28.3

    Daredevil: 27.4

    Renegade benchmark without allies (credit for this goes to Abys): 24.7

    Note: Firebrand is with allies. I'll try to do some research and find benchmarks for without allies.

     

    Support

    Banner Warrior: 26.5

    Scourge: 24.8

    Condi Renegade: 20.8

    Nature Magic Condi Druid: 13.7

    Marksmanship Power Druid: 13.4

    Nature Magic Power Druid: 11.9

    Dueling/Insp Chrono: 16.2

    Illusion/Insp Chrono: 11.2

    Domi/Insp Chrono: 9.5

    Thanks Mevic!

    I watched both videos and I tend to agree with the commenter on the second video. I only thing that strategy worked because they had good rng. The only reason they lived at that last wall was luck.

    I have heard the rumor that SH CM is actually easier than normal mode. I'd be up for trying at least a few pulls so people get a feel for it. I haven't gotten a chance to analyze our pulls from Monday yet, but I believe our problems are the pushing and walls. 

    I should probably know this, but what is the skill that people are using to push the golem that has those blue chains? Is that banish/zealots embrace from hammer guard?

    Having trouble with greens and orbs? Haven't done it before and want to see how it's done?

    I found this video (it's kinda old) of people going up with the greens and collecting orbs. You can see they always go to the left, get the slightly larger orb, and avoid the center. Not to sound threatening or anything, but we all need to know how to do this because at 10% we ALL get teleported up.

    Note: Uploading files to GW2 Raidar requires arcdps. I realize not everyone is comfortable downloading arcdps on their computer (even though I think it's perfectly safe.) If you would rather not install arcdps, I will be happy to accompany you on your golem runs and capture the data with my computer.

     

    1. Download Arcdps from https://www.deltaconnected.com/arcdps/ Install as directed.
    2. Select the option for evtc logging. 
    3. Make an account on GW2 Raidar https://www.gw2raidar.com
    4. Upload raid logs by dragging them into a browser window open to https://www.gw2raidar.com/uploads 
    5. Send me a link with the run you want me to look at. You will have to leave your privacy settings a Public until I look at the logs. After that you can change them to whatever you want.

    Another Option:

    If you don't like GW2 Raidar you could upload them to GW2 DPS Report https://dps.report As far as I can tell it is the old Raid Heroes without the download. If you use this method simply send me the link.

     

    Even if you don't want to upload logs to GW2 Raidar yourself, I'd recommend making an account. I will be loading all of the Copperhead kills there. (I will also link to them on the NPC website.) This will allow you to see your dps trends over time.

    These are the benchmark numbers squad members need to hit on the golem. These are the minimum! The higher our numbers are, the quicker the kills and less time we have to deal with mechanics (mostly). I suggest everyone try to reach 90% on their main class.

     The format is 

    Class/build: Golem1st number, Golem 2nd, Golem 3rd, Golem 4th (these are the numbers that read out in the chat window, unit is k); average dps (this number comes from GW2 dps reports https://dps.report)

    I'm most concerned with the average. I'm not going to fuss over small differences in the other numbers. These are all small hit box. These numbers all come from SC's website. Let me know if you want to run something not on this list.

     

    Power classes

    Weaver/ Arcane LH: 36.1, 33.1, 31.8, 31.3; 31.1

    Weaver/Air LH: 33, 31, 31.7, 31.2; 31.6

    Holosmith/No scope (run if you are in a group with no Condi party members): 31.5, 30.8, 30.1, 29.8; 29

    Holosmith/pinpoint distribution (run if you are in a group with Condi): 31.6, 29.7, 29.1, 28.3; 28.2

    DH zeal/radiance: 29.8, 26.2, 25.6, 26.1; 26.1

     

    Condition classes

    Banner warrior (BS): 22.3, 25, 25, 25.6; 26

    Mirage/clone: 23.4, 27.9, 28.9, 29.9; 30.3

    Mirage/phantasm: 24.5, 26.7, 27.6, 28.3; 29.0

    Firebrand Unscathed Contender: 26.4 average w/o allies

    Firebrand Master of Consecrations: 25.5 average w/o allies

    Soulbeast/stance share (please run stance share unless there are two Soulbeasts in your party-which there shouldn't be!): 31.1, 29.3, 29.7, 29; 29.1

    Renegade/Devastation (should be run if you have a power DPS party member): 25.5-this is the solo benchmark

     

    Niche classes (only to be used in specific fights)

    Condi DD: MO, Cairn, Matt 23.4

    Scourge: Deimos, Soulless Horror 25.8

    Weaver Air or Arcane with IB for large hitboxes

    If you'll have me I'll join. I'd prefer not Mondays since that's the day Attuned does guild missions and I miss doing that with them. I'd like my main class to be warrior BS.

    I'll take a poll to see if people can switch to Tuesday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday. We'll go with whatever works for the most people in the group.

    Note: Probably most of us know how to do this. I'm putting this here just in case. 

    1. Go to https://account.arena.net/login and sign in
    2. Go to the Application tab and press the New Key button
    3. Give the key a name and select account, characters, builds, and progression (for boss kill check). If you are an NPC member who has raided with us, I am not checking LI. 
    4. Send me you key through a direct mail on the website. If you are concerned about account security you can delete the key as soon as I tell you I've checked it.

    Wednesdays are often taken up during the year for me. Will this squad have any substitute or temporary roles?

    That is an excellent question Fred (and one I admit I hadn't through through all the way.) 

    We will definitely have a sub list (which you are welcome to join). I intend to recruit a full 10 man squad of people committed to attending raids regularly, so I won't be able to guarantee subs a specific amount of raid time. (I want to be honest about what to expect.) 

    It is also very possible we will need some temporary or sub members until we can recruit enough people to fill the squad. Specifically in January when we start back up again. Hopefully that phase won't be too long (no more than a few weeks.) Unfortunately, I won't be able to be very specific about those needs until we get closer to the time and I know how recruitment is going.

    Hopefully that answers your question. Let me know if anything isn't clear :)

    I'm in! :P

    I'd like to be either Druid, DPS, or Healer/Support/DPS.

    I will post my API key and golem logs in the members only section of our forums ASAP. (Note: I don't expect everyone to post this stuff. However, it's only fair for me to so that you can see I'm holding myself to the same standards as everyone else in the squad.)
