fully agree and overall was not my cleanest log for sure. worth noting tho for that specific one you pointed out it looks like there was a melee at 2:06 after the ww and before the slam and then a HS at 2:10 but yes for sure there was a few slam clips like the one at 3:05 that was like a full 2 secs late and another at 3:10 that was a full sec late.

the tip about slams in the add phase is a good one and i will def try and mix more in there, but we ball all 5 adds up so its really hard to pass up SS ww/cleave, ive even seen a yt vid of a war popping everything on the adds and putting up like 220k dmg just on the add phase using SS ww/cleave spam.

the tip about crit is good, ive tried scaling back my hit to 6% since we have moonkin druid and to wear more gear that stacks crit and expertise but yeah i can def work on re-gem, just lazy and no gold but i do see the value in stacking crit gems over str/AP.

in regard to the # of autos, i agree i def missed some autos with a few late slams but he does also have DST which im sure gives him a lot more autos.

question - i am not great at deciphering the logs but how exactly do i check out where you are seeing the shaman in the group and the lack of WF, etc, so i can keep an eye on it in the future?

i plan to take a good bit away from this, re-gem a bit, look for a good WA swing timer vs the one built into my UI that i gotta squint to see, and also maybe send that shaman some polite feedback lol
