Granted, I have never seen this fight before so I don't know the precise mechanics.
Is this the norm nowadays? |
1K+ DPS isn't terribly difficult, really. On our first Kael kill this week (yay), I
pulled nearly 1k doing some tanking on the bow in stage 2 and plenty of mistakes elsewhere in the fight. On a more static fight like Morogrim you can expect
pretty decent DPS with a little luck with graves. I still bone myself all the time using stopcasting macros so I know I could do even better.
