Tip of the Day - Use your Cooldowns
|
"The best way to instantly increase your overall DPS is to use your cooldowns every time they are available. If you have multiple cooldowns, figure out if staggering them or stacking them works best but for pete's sake use them. They're only 2-5 minute cooldowns. That usually means you can use them on every or every other trash pull. Or even 2-4 times in a raid boss fight. Don't save them for an 'emergency'. That's just wasting them for no good reason."

And be sure to use them immediately after the pull as a DPS, so you're sure to steal agro from the tank and die

It is always the tank's fault. Unless it is the healer's.

Who uses DPS cooldowns in emergencies? That doesn't even make sense.

As Ret there's a very specific time to pop CD's on bosses and if you do it out of order, it may as well be wasted.
For other classes, dunno.

Pro's don't give free tips to us amateurs dude! Their milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, and they could teach us, but they'd have to charge....

/facepalm
So you are telling potentially retarded (aka 90% of hte dps who play this game) people to use CDs whenever they want? How about telling them to go google their class and find out how to play said class and give a GOOD tip, instead of just spouting whatever sounds good.
Bad tip is bad.
Plus quite honestly, at best 15 people post here and they are all (self-admittedly) god like in WoW skills. Why bother posting tips that are either bad or add up to the phrase "don't be stupid".
