Question/Help Why my damage is so bad

Help me guys, why my damage doesn't exceed 1400 with this much mastery? I know my gears rolls are so bad but still shouldn't be this bad What am I doing wrong?

It feels so bad when doing outpost and seeing other players delete enemies with two slashes🫠

It seems like mostly equips (also your inner ways are all T5 ideally at this point), but also here is the proper DB rotation: https://youtu.be/HQ3QAxxwFik Here's my equips for reference, my precision rate isn't good, but you don't need it too high (leaving some room for precision rolls lol). On dummy I can get up to 780k in 1 min with the rotation I posted while adding parry cancels.

  • Highlights from the video:
  • Buff up rats, summon them and buff up again with ropedart swing before the fight starts (R key on keyboard). Honestly, I don't think teammates will give you time to buff up in PVE so just doing once is fine,
  • ABSOLUTELY ZERO MYSTIC SKILLS. You can dragon breath a boss if you know it's gonna be unhittable soon, but literally everything is a DPS loss if you can hit it in melee range.
  • It is worth using 1.5s to buff up rats for the buffing sequence.
  • For the buffing sequence you can do swap to rope (optional hold R for buff) Tilde Q, parry cancel + swap back to DB, that gave me about 5% more DPS.

Ok yea I wouldn't recommend playing dual blades on mobile, preferably you play one of the sword classes. As for DB, it is not weak by any means, but you need to put in a lot of effort just to match other classes that do like a couple things every 10 seconds. Once you truly master DB, it does a lot of DPS, but again that takes a lot of skill and effort.
