(Video) Dragoncall vs Dragon Helix

[VaneQuish]

 

 

Ping in this video was around 30-50.

Call DPS - 12,744 | Helix DPS - 13,598

 

Info:

Quick 1 minute parses for both Dragoncall and Dragon Helix. It's important to note although this comparison was short that the relative damage of each should be the same as I did 2 rotations for each build.

 

Important Notes:

What I've found is that Dragoncall is very dependent on how much you crit. You can gain a lot more damage on Call if you crit more often. This is taken into account that you have the book and if you don't Dragon Helix is just a much much better option. I suggest you use whatever you are comfortable with as both do a massive amount of damage when played right. Either way Bombardment is the main source of damage for both builds and having the target debuff up longer is a bonus with the Helix build. Build:

 

Build:

Here's the build I use - https://bnstree.com/WL?build=50030020353145032220310113180032170313103106041090530703123031040313002266032 Switch out Helix for Call if you want to use that. I use left side rupture as they have recently buffed it and I believe it is 100% better than right side rupture. Not only does it let you have no focus problems but the damage is only slightly lower than right side rupture without having the obnoxious 2 focus cost. One other small benefit to going left side rupture is the 1.2 target time. With right side Rupture you only get 0.8. The benefit of the 1.2 second target time is to let you be able to RB THREE times after a Rupture which gives you a better chance to reset rupture CD and give you more target debuff time.

Have you tried right side for RMB? I like using V -> 4 -> RMB -> 4 -> F - >4 (between each pulse).

Much much much lower DPS, I have tested it and if you don't time every RB for the charged hit you will be doing significantly less damage.

Hello, nice vid. Which program are you using for measure your overall dmg and dps? Or manually counting?

How do you keep your focus up... My weapon never procs that much.
