Unreasonable expectation on Blm in t7?

[Zhi]

Then it's a moot point and you can now get your thoughts in order if it happens again and prepare counter measure and suggestions to remedy it.

From what I've experienced, 90k's don't even last long. 90k's still take you back to the home screen, where you can log back in quite fast. Unless, in OP's case, decided to not log back on right away which I doubt would be the case.

Depends what caused the disconnect. Yes, a 90k is JUST a disconnect, so it could be anything. And some of those last longer than others, not to mention the server may not boot her out right away, which would prevent her from logging back in right away. This is especially true if the disconnect didn't come from SE's end.

TRY KEEPING DPS UP ON ADDS WHEN YOU GET CURSED SHRIEK!!!! That's 20 seconds of no dps on adds for me, what am i expected to do?

While you do have to move to get the Renaud between you and the rest of the party, you can cast through it. At least I heal through it all the time. Yes I read your post about placement.

report them for using parsers.

You can tell pretty easily if a dps is slacking with the enmity bar. Unless they actually stated numbers you have no basis for reporting.

[VoltaAsura]

I just want to point out that you do not need a parser to know if someone is not doing a lot of DPS. I'm not saying that you weren't OP, but it can be obvious for some people.

Also, not sure why people are jumping on the parser thing. I don't see anything in the OP about parsing? Or is it just me?

While BLM is the least favoured class for coil2, this reply does tbh, show that you likely are not playing it well for that turn.

If every add/the boss is out of range for where you need to go for shriek, you should be using and proc you have, as you run and just because you got out of range finish with SC- Flare on the boss or an add. You Can then transpose as you wait for Shriek and scathe as you run back into position, leaving you full mana to resume dps. Even once you see the Shriek timer you should not be running right away, time it so you can get off another cast before moving into position.

Do something like that and your dps should be within an acceptable range regardless of the shrieks you get.

BLM played well will still do more dps than most people you find in PUG's.

Meanwhile, every MNK and DRG is rolling their eyes at this topic because this is the kind of thing they've been putting up with since day one.

OP should play a melee to appreciate his BLM.

Monk is superior in dps for most end game content, so how is that relevant?

Someone's forgotten 2.1 and the EX Primals already...heck, Turn 2 back in 2.0 was mostly ranged-only as well. Can't be top DPS if you're not allowed to do the content. And don't bring up statics...that's something else entirely (since its a set group and are generally all better-than-average players)

And only good MNK are top DPS; even then, too many shrieks and they can be last in T7.

[Kuroyasha]

I play monk. What am I supposed to do, punch the Renauds? So I feel your pain, but no I won't agree that your ok to have low DPS.

false equivalence. We have no where near the dps problems blm do if we stop atking t7, even if we lose GL. Our dps is top of the food chain, so we have plenty of wiggle room to still post high dps in t7. Not so for blm.

2.1 Ex primals?

An equally geared and skilled Monk does good dps for Titan and Ifrit.

Garuda was not good for Melee's I admit, but again a good melee player pulled their weight.
