Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Ayvar]

Urgh... So much to read. I wish someone would cliff it for me (the essential news) but I'd have to get off my lazy butt and read I suppose lol

I'll be editing the main post soon enough to reflect the changes, but being the Christmas holidays and all I'll probably do it in chunks.

Wouldn't those BiS lists that you know for a fact were already posted confirm or deny this? Not really sure what more you want if multiple people "confirmed" BiS stuff by posting said lists.

I have some questions regarding all of the BiS posts that I will bring up below.

BTW,

What accuracy should i be at turn 5?
I have 479 now, but if switch to the wyrm pants, i think i have about 465.

The problem is I have seen no hard evidence confirming the ~480 accuracy cap, which is odd considering how often it is thrown around. I posted my own Turn 5 evidence many pages back that showed zero misses over an hour and a half at 473 accuracy. Since then I've done hours and hours of Turn 5 at 473 accuracy and continue to have zero misses, so I refuse to use any BiS list that uses anything around a 480 accuracy cap. If someone posts something to back it up then I will reassess, but for now I've only got my own numbers to go by.

So before I update the BiS links in the main post I want to see a BiS list that uses 472-473 as the cap (which was the cap used for the two original lists in the OP), with comparisons of +2% accuracy food such as deviled eggs (so ~465 accuracy to hit the cap), to a list using buttons or similar hitting the accuracy cap using gear alone. Hopefully for pre and post Turn 5. I'll do it myself in a couple days if I don't see anything posted by then.

Either way, getting a definitive BiS list isn't something that must be done NOW. Any dps differences between lists will be so minor as to be effectively pointless. However, I do want to have an accurate BiS list within a week or so for the number hogs among us.

EDIT: my god I have to rewrite everything, the damage buffs have balls'd up all the numbers
