Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Marcusow86]

I recently trying to figure out what action is best for the below situation:-

1. After i Heavy thrust and going for IDC, the boss turns around (Titan Ext), do i use true thrust (sometimes + vorpal thrust)and wait for him to turn back for IDC? or i try to rotate to the boss's back myself?

2. When my combo stuck at Disembowel going to CT the boss jumps (Ifrit + Titan), do i continue my combo (even losing HT buff) after the boss lands? or do i redo my combo from scratch?

3. When killing gaol or nails, do i forgo Dots and go for HT + TTT to maximize damage?

4. Sometimes a fraction of delay or positioning error would caused Surge + Full thrust to be executed without HT buff. Will that be advisable? or drop the combo completely and reapply HT before going back to the TTT combo.

Any pro DRG can please advise me? D

1. (How I start off in Titan EX) HT > Phlebotomize > Leg Sweep > IDC > therestofallthatshit Be prepared to dodge through him to do IDC, because he might landslide your way instead of the rest of the party, be quick about it.

2. This one is worded a little funny, so I'm kinda iffy about answering it.
3. TTT dat Gaol/nail up with OGDs too.

4. Well if the Full thrust has already gone off, there's nothing you can do about it. Not that you'd want to because a Surge + Heavy thrust doesn't sound to appealing, does it?

All of these but the fourth are pretty wrong. Here is what you want to be doing.

1. Stick with the normal rotation, no point in switching it. HT>B4B>ID>IR>DE>PS>CT>Jump>Ph>LegS>TT>VT>LS>FT>HT>TT>VT>FT>Ph. Now after i phlebotomize i run to his back because at this time he is turning to land slide, so i literally run right through him to ID, then run back to where everyone is stacked, this usually means if the dps isn't insane then i get a brand new Dot rotation on him before he jumps losing no dps time.

2. I always finish my combo, even if your HT falls off because of a mechanic im pretty sure its better to FT or CT instead of starting over, i could be wrong though.

3. This is not the optimal way to do nails. We just had the discussion 2 pages back or 1 page back. Refer to EasymodeX's post. EasymodeX's post on nail rotation

4. If you already surged then just FT. If you have B4B active and it wont last through another rotation, just LS>FT. If neither of these are the case then go ahead with your normal rotation until the next time you come around to FT.

I like shorts, they're comfy and easy to wear!

Well, unless if me switching it during initial Titan pull hinders my DPS , then I'm okay. I merely use that at the beginning for my own convenience because Titan always landslides right as I was about to IDC his fat ass. So I'm Leg Sweeping as I'm walking through him to immediately IDC him. :P
