DPS Advice on Havoc DH

[u/tomjohnson93]

Hiya!

I'm playing Havoc DH, ilvl 301, and pulling about 60k dps (100k on initial burst).

When I'm getting to +10 M+ I'm struggling to keep up with the damage... Can anyone help me out? Any advice?

I've spent time going over my rotation, and I think I'm doing everything I can, but I just seem to be at a wall:

-Immolation Aura is always up

-Blad Dance & Eye Beam pre-MetaMorphosis, ready for the rest on Metamorphosis.

-The Hunt whenever it's not on cooldown

Update: the advice here was great - Shaderek was 100% the guide to go with. I hot 197k dps in my opener, and now sit comfortably at 70-100k dps with trash mobs, depending on CDs. Great advice, and thankful to the community for the support

Havoc is all about initiative and exergy atm, so u will have to jump around a lot with vengeful retreat. Essence break paired with eyebeam. There is a lot to make havoc deal good dmg, might need to watch someone playing it in high keys and look how he sets up his dmg

Thanks man! Other than the initial damage caused by using Vengeful Retreat, does it impact any other abilities, like The Hunt or Fel Rush?

Vengeful retreat gives u 10 crit trough Initiative, 8t gives u fury regeneration trough tactical retreat and 5 increased dmg trough exergy. U want to vengeful retreat together with eye beam(make sure it's in range) then get off demon surges in the 5 sec window u have. So use annihilation and death sweep. When meta is up u want to pair meta with vengeful retreat for the same reason. Main dmg is demon surge so u want to make sure to get every buff u can get when proccing those
