hitting for less more often will always do better than 1 mega alpha with something like the %30 dmg cap. adjust your setup accordingly.
------
Tell that to the ones who die of shield dmg.
Hell, hitting an advy with a full alpha (if he doesnt evade half of it) does like 3k dmg easily. To yourself.
So, no, hitting for less more often is NOT the key.
I mean, i tried it out, let an advy go full off, get shields/reflects up and launched full alpha on a predrained trader. AS/fling ES/LS/bloodletting/Tap vitae/VS/collapser/implode/Power shock/Power volley aswell as 4 accumulator hits and 6 normal hits until the full alpha was launched.
Summary: damage done to the advy: insignificant, he cooned up after AS. To me: 21x360 shield +21x49 reflect dmg. 7560+1029 damage to me.
