I’ve been playing this class since Legion; it’s my main in both PvP and PvE. I follow the opener and rotation, and I’ve always had good DPS with this class. However, I feel like my DPS is low in raids—I’m doing around 750k on single target and 1m on multi-target. I’m wondering if that’s normal with my gear and item level of 604. I’m using the (Raid ST Inertia) build from Wowhead fel-scarred.
Build : CEkAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYGMzMzgZmZMmJmZGAAAAAAwsMmxMMGLzMz2sNLjZGmZBLbwysYGDzmmGMzMzw2G
I respect the rotation and opener from wowhead and i use hekili to help a little bit🤷♂️
Ps : sorry for my bad english !

Raid build for dh is pretty straight forward outside of the opener (which isn’t bad after getting used to it as it never changes)
The most important part after your opener is every 20 seconds you press vengeful retreat and every 40 seconds you line up all of your damage amps so it would look something like:
Immo aura > sigil of flame > vengeful retreat and eyebeam > fel rush > essence break > death sweep > annihilation spam
Thx, but i think i know the rotation, but i would like to know if i am the only one with this dps in raid at 604ilvl. like 750dps on single target or on mannequins after my opener.
With raidbot i’m supposed to make 930k dps
i would like to know if i’m bad or it’s is just the dh ?
I have 10% versability, 43% mastery and 31% Critical strike, 5% haste
but i don’t have the best stuff for real…
Looking at the top parses, they all have 4pc, including Illidonkey above for his 99 parses.
You’re at 3 pc, same as me. I plan to wait till next week to really evaluate once 4pc.

Having 4 piece won’t suddenly make him not do essence break outside of meta or throw glaive during it
outside of very niche examples there’s a lot of classes doing more damage, if you’re raiding with competent gamers you are not going to be on top or realistically anywhere close to it.
If you mess up a few damage windows you’ll just literally be like 10th on the meter. Play perfectly and the rogues, mages, dks, wars, hunters, shamans and locks are all going to be ahead of you assuming they are at your skill level.

This doesn’t align with what I saw in the race to world first. DH was consistently near the top.
It’s because there is a clear difference between a bad, good, and great DH. If you look at wowhead DPS ranking 95th percentile DH will be near the top. When you look at overall percentiles DH is between middle and bottom.
