tsw lag.
punch goes through and you see sor being casted, but it doesnt actually go through. you must wait half a second before you cast sor when you come out of leap/ww. else it doesnt register.

I'll try to keep this in mind. Sometimes it's even walking up to targets, no leap/ww being used still feels like 50-50. The dungeons/rifts are fine like Fauzt is easy right now but the bosses are hard O-)

That’s pretty low. Have you checked the attributes window after attacking/casting, hovering over the AR values to see the chance to hit these bosses? Ideally you’d like to see 95% pop up. If it’s significantly lower than you are losing out on lots of damage

I've followed the guide to the letter, including re-running charms for max stats. I haven't specifically checked the % for bosses but I can re-spec runes for +dex%. Probably also I'm just bad (-:

Do check attributes window for chance to hit :bounce:
Also I don't really play melee so maybe someone will pop in and say there's other reasons for your troubles

After changing out runes in gear to give dex and putting some dex MOs into gear, I'm around 35k AR. How can I continue to increase it without putting stats into dex?

- Swap a couple runes with crafted jewels with %AR
- make sure you have a well rolled Spirit Trance Herb (Max Is +150%AR I think)
- MO %AR in weapon

With gharanics you're set as far as attack rating goes and it's also pretty much the best weapon.
