(06-19-2017, 09:00 PM)AzRed Wrote: it was early when i wrote that. i meant to go on to explain that on average i was seeing 3-5 stacks of repertoire during openers, which is 420, 520 or 660 potency. This is compared to the potencies of the same number of blood letters of 390, 520, 650.
But again, it was early and in a few more varied versions of opener with fully party buffs, i'm seeing 8 repertoires making WM much more potent.
The paeon buff and minuet buff from troubadour are REDUCED INCOMING damage to party, not increased vulnerability to the targets, so those can't be taken into account when determining which is better in an opener.
DOH! lol major rewrite...
OP updated for 3.11. Quite a bit better and getting close. I'm lvl69 now so another big update next level.

I'm still trying to figure out if waiting to line up barrage with reflugent arrow is worth...so much rng in bardville now.

4.01
Changed opener a bit to take advantage of BL proc you get from Empy arrow under Ballad. Opener logic much shorter now so should get you into AOE rotation much faster if that's the case.
ADDED FILTER TO ALLOW BARRAGE > EMPYREAL ARROW. Please check your filters.

some (rather well known) bards and i have been theory crafting openers and petency over fights...it does not seem worth it to hold barrage only for refulgent arrow, but holding refulgent arrow for barrage is okay if less than 8 seconds on barrage cooldown and you can use an emperyal arrow in those 8 seconds...
basically - never hold barrage, never hold empy, only hold refulgent if barrage is coming up in 8 seconds or less.
i have that now built in and seems to work well on my end. i'll send you the logic if you'd like, Chunky.
Also, do you have songs up and running? haven't downloaded yours, but, it seems that it just spams them....i tried setting so it goes like this:
Ballad - if it is ready
WM - if ballad cooldown is less than 50 seconds
AP - if ballad and WM are not ready

Sure, send away thx! I modified the opener on mine myself, and haven't done much research yet.
After that I just switch songs manually. Pitch Perfect manually to avoid 1 stacks. Doing CDs manually other than barrage>empy having that filter setup.
Thx AzRed.
My opener
Straight (BL Ballad) Dot1 (RS Empy) Dot2 (BV BL) HS >>> rotation

Think I'll use your song logic AzRed, but put them on a filter. Don't want to use them when boss about to jump or a dungeon pull is close to death, etc..
Thx!
