DPS check for turn 8?

Remaking this because I posted on the wrong section. :<

What's the reasonable amount of DPS for all DD classes in t8?

Currently, we're hitting phase 3 at 7 min and 30 seconds and I was told that's not good enough to kill it within enrage.

Our MNK was able to shine the best at 340+
DRG barely hits 290, same for both of our SMN.
Our BRD however only hits around 220.
Keep in mind everyone has i100 weapon, except one of the SMN and BRD (i95)

Everyone is under performing even with i95 weapons.

Your MNK with i100 should be 380 at least, assuming that your MNK have no duty which is most of the case (at most eat some mines or emergency tower activation if the original guy assigned has Allagan Field)

DRG with i100 under 300 is pretty much... IDK. At least 50 DPS too low. Your DRG should be comfortably be at 340-350 with some duties, such as homing/brainjack/eating mines.

BRD @ 220 is just LOL. My previous raid WAR who plays BRD in T8 and he haven't been playing BRD since ages so he's pretty much in shitty gear (not full i90) with a Zenith weapon deals about 250-260. Assuming your BRD is properly geared with i95 weapon he should be doing 310-320 range.

Same goes to your SMN. With i95 the average SMN dude should be able to get 330 or so.

Looks like it's dummy time for all your DDs. :) T8 is the first turn that really shows when people are or aren't doing proper rotations.

I'm not sure if I remember the numbers but I think all DDs (if you're going with single tank and 5 DDs) should be doing at least 300 or 320 DPS to be able to meet the timer.

Also, are your DDs using food and potions? And do they all have 100% accuracy?

"DRG barely hits 290, same for both of our SMN"

I am sorry to tell this

If your SMN did equal to DRG, they are very very bad SMN

The best advice here, please tell your team to practice on Strike Dummy, they just did not do it proper

I remember clearing it with
Monk350 smn330 drg 290 drg 260 bard 270

So total has to be around 1600?
This was a party that couldn't skip the ballasta in w5 so we barely scraped it and even enraged at 3%hp in 1 of our wipes.

Minimum is 1515 or something, included Tank

1650　DPS raid-wide

Accounts for dreads.

220 is pathetically low. Even if you are singing songs the entire time. Especially with a dragoon in the party.

Your bard doesn't know what the hell he's doing.

My bard is ilvl 97 with the Levi bow and I maintain 330 on T8.
And that's including playing mana song at 45% to help out the healers.

Think I posted before but I'll do so again.
300+ from everyone, to finish the fight comfortably.
For it to not be a close call you want to be hitting 1700 collectively.

A few people in my static had pathetically low dps. It was confusing because on a dummy they would be much higher indicating it wasn't a rotation issue. I finally realized they thought they couldn't dps during ballistic missiles if they were bound. It seems obvious but you might want to check with them they are not stopping dps for any mechanics like this.

Also, have casters activate sprint everytime it comes off cooldown. I'm told it will help build the lb faster.

Bard here, ilvl 95 (Levi Weapon + right side i100 + body and belt i100) : 313-317DPS with songs. About songs, our 2nd bard starts the fight with Requiem, when his requiem is off, I start mine, then when he has full mana, he restarts a requiem, I start a TP song after the 2nd dread until I run out of TP and he uses his mana song after 45%. After that point, the songs will be used according to the situation.

220 is way to low. Does he have Invogorate ? And, at a lesser level, Blood for Blood and Internal Release ? Does he keep his dots on the mob ? Does he keep the Straight Shot's buff ? Does he stop his DPS when he needs to move ? Does he use Bloodletter whenever the skill is ready ?
