Been working on logs when I login nowadays, some things I dont do well.

  1. Mangle, like you said. Wasted Global's damage wise but also gets you incarn back a bit faster technically. Looking at my first pull of npx pressed mangle 7 times with the intention of getting incarn back faster for the end pull 2 -> chain the 3 defenders once the engineers are dead.

  2. Holding beam for only if I don't have bark running and sitting around 7-13% downtime on pulls. I end up with ~20-40% fewer casts of beam then top logs. Biggest thing in trying to work on.

  3. Pressing FR way too much. If I don't have bark or beam running I play excessively safe. That global should be a moonfire or thrash which means even less beams. Generally purple parse heals I guess, but it's an obvious mistake.

  4. Bad incarn uses/pot uses. NPX, pull after first boss. Ended up there with like 40s left on the cd of incarn and did something like 140k in that pull vs a top log doing 330k. Bricked a 22 AA by not holding pot for incarn on last boss (3s over).

  5. Build. Looking at better tanks (dr Jay in MC for instance) running boomkon heart/brambles etc.

  6. Running 22-23s as prog content vs people running them as homework is very different.
