Optimal threat cycles

once you get to Teron, 40/21 is the way.
the only good way.
AD would get leapfrogged easily (unless you're over 25k/25k hp armor...)
got 1.3k on Illidan with 350 spelldmg, but that's about Holy Shield, SA and clever use of Redoubt (hey, it's not totally worthless), and 1.1-1.2k on teron with the same Smile

Hi there, first post for me !

I've been lurking around to check whether my concern had already been answered, and couldn't find anything (but i'm pretty sure it must be here somewhere).

Been wondering about what the "best" initial aggro sequence was in a fight where constant burst dps is required (teron kind of fight).
My guess would be :
-Holy Shield
-Avenger's Shield
-JotC
-Seal
(-Exorcism)

Here comes the "real" question : In this kind of fight, would Seal of Vengeance be recommended ? We know that it produces a better TPS (at my gear level), but the time lost in aplying the full 5 stacks sets me a bit off.
Thank you !

improving tps can be done simply by not having to wait for GCD to use skills. Keep in mind holy shield is 10 sec, consecrate is 8 sec, and judgment can be 8-10 sec depends on spec. Playing around and studying ur optimal cycles will greatly improve ur tps over the duration of combat. I can guarantee you that you'll lose approx 50-150 tps if u are constantly sitting there waiting for ur GCD to use ur next skill.
