Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

What this thread's consensus about locking on? Do you guys do it? Does it make a big difference in DPS?

I do it, I have it set to a fast hot key so I can quickly take it off when I have to move out of an aoe like circle blade etc. Keeps your auto attacks going at all times. It's a small DPS increase compared to legacy without lock on.

I'm 90% sure its more "valuable" on MNK, as our AA is normally around our GDC (and we should only be moving on the boss for two moves, where MNK can be moving every move or every other), so it lines up reasonably well, or well enough that a few lost AA don't matter over the course of a long fight (damage RNG will have more an effect kinda small)

Very small especially if you move with strafes. Its really user preference imo.

Yeah, it's a very tiny dps increase and won't make or break a fight I don't believe, since drg is not mnk and doesn't move quite as much. I do it because it gives me a better "feel" for positioning I guess. I agree that it is user pref If you like it do it if not not a big deal.

yeah drg doesn't move as much as a mnk so a mnk has more reason to do this. I just use it cause it feels more comfortable to move around bosses with it on. I don't do it cause of dps reasons, I just like it.
