So how exactly are you supposed to keep clearcasting up then? On our last shannox hc kill (for which I got ranked #90 on worldoflogs) I got 58% clearcasting uptime over the course of the fight. If you check some of the absolute top parses you see comparable numbers (50%-ish). The only influence you have on keeping clearcasting up is by means of lava burst. Which is on an 8s cd, and can be reset by lava surge procs which are totally random. You have zero influence on crits whatsoever beyond lava burst, not to mention that crit is ele's worst stat. Playing to keep clearcasting up would be pretty dumb tbh as you would have to deliberately postpone our hardest hitting spell (lava burst) just to keep the proc going and favor lightning bolt. Obviously all lava bursts should crit, but the 4 he missed won't influence his clearcasting uptime a lot.
I wasn't implying to manage clearcasting. I was pointing out the non-crit lava burst crits, and relaying that to clearcasting.
Way to read too much into it.
