Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[EasymodeX]

Turn 1-2 are trivial. I remember doing it with the relic+1 weapon and full AK gear.

Just make sure you're actually executing DPS well. Beyond that just learn the mechanics and ... execute. Find some learning group in PF or through an LS, or make one yourself.

+1 try to knock out Turn 1 & 2 for a chance at some sweet, sweet drops. Then base your myth spending around what you get/don't get from Coil. Theeeeeen base your onion junk on what you still need.

Don't fret over gear too much, man. Just increase your ilvl where you can, worry about omgzperfectgear once you have so much that you can afford to. I got my ass handed to me by a taru DRG the other day, and I know his gear's overall stat weight was inferior to mine. Player skill comes first.

Just got zenith this morning. I am scared to get over lapped with wrym and onion or allagan. I have all DL on except onion waist from last week. I have no experience with turn 1 at all. Item lvl is 73 now. I need someone to draw me a map lol, I am on vacation this week only and want to maximize my time home. I am already capped in philos and only have 76 myths today but currently at 250/450 this week! What piece should I look for in CT and also this turn 1 trial? Am I good enough to farm turn 1 for drops? Please help

What I suggested is really a good way to go

Save up for Myth chest over the next two weeks, get the legs and gauntlets out of CT. Now, if you start doing Coil and clear T1 and T2, you may get the Legs, Belt and/or Gauntlets; don't worry, just replace the Onion gear if you do. No big loss.

Next Myth is the Feet the next week; get the Helm out of CT that week. At this point, you should have Myth and CT gear in all your left-side spots, maybe some Allagan.
Next Myth to buy is the helm; yes, you are starting to replace CT stuff now, and don't need any more DRG drops from there (you can skip the CT helm if you want too)

If you don't have any of the three Allagan from T1 (except legs, just do not buy the Myth legs), buy the Belt or Gauntlets next, then the next week the other. Again, don't buy the legs unless you really want them; the Allagan is just better. The Myth belt is a good one to get anyway, but if you get the Allagan you can put off buying it til later.


EDIT: as for Coil, just join Coil learning groups and start learning. Its OK if you fail, just make sure to be there to learn. Eventually you will get it.

Ughh I missed in T5 with 473 acc. Looks like I'm going to have to aim a bit higher.

What skill did you miss with and where you standing near the front, flank, or rear of Twintania? Or did you miss on the snakes?

And gratz Krym ^_^

Another week of Coil, another Choker of Striking (6th or 7th for our group >.<), and more chests with no DRG loot

I have a question about the rotation. Usually when running towards a boss Garuda/Titan/Ultima, the tank is still getting aggro and turning it or w/e so I cast a Phlebotomize first and then go into HT>ID combo>TT combo and right at the end I have just enough time while HT buff and BfB is still up to get in a second Phlebotomize to snapshot the buffs. Would this be a loss in DPS rather than going straight for HT at the start?

It's just that sometimes I've seen the mob spin in place and stuff because of aggro and I would think missing the buff for a HT and having to use it again would be worse than getting a Phlebotomize up.

I could use a Choker of Striking.
