Druids - Balance sequence for Mists - any advice please

Dear All

Being only an average player I have been messing about for quite some time unsuccessfully trying to raise the dps of my balance druids.

My average Ilevel is between 420-440. My team against the mists raider finder targety dummy are averaging around 13500 dps. In instances this is dropping to an embarassing 11500.

I use a three step approach but would appreciate any feedback, very likely I have not interpreted the best advised sequences properly.

STEP 1 - Balance dots

/castsequence faerie fire, moonfire, sunfire

STEP 2 - Balance sequence

/startattack
/castsequence Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wr ath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,S tarfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfi re, Starfire,Sunfire,Starfire,Starfire

STEP 3 - Balance Procs

/startattack
/castsequence Starsurge
/cast [noform] Moonkin Form
/use 13
/use 14

Any feedback would really be appreciated.

I don't have any moonkins right now but I'd try this:



Step 1:

Code:

---

/cast [noform] Moonkin Form
/castsequence reset=target sunfire, moonfire, null

---

This will get dots up on most targets and you won't need to reapply dots the way you did it is going to spam overwrite your dots a lot of the time

Step 2:

Code:

---

/castsequence reset=target starsurge, starsurge, starsurge, sunfire, moonfire

---

put this second because starsurge is more important than your filler spells. I believe that you have the chance to proc them, so this sequence should last you 15-18 seconds. If thats wrong (on average) add or remove surges, basically you just want this to occasionally reapply your dots for long fights without overwriting them and wasting cooldowns.

step 3:

Code:

---

/castsequence Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath,Wrath, Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Starfire,Sunfire,Starfire,Starfire
/use 13
/use 14

---

Please test and let me know how much this raises your dps.

I took out the start attacks because you don't want any moonkins to start meleeing the boss!

Thanks Luxlunae appreciate your input. I will try this out and report back here.
