BRD DPS (And how to improve mine!)

[Ooshima]

Not possible. ~270-280 is reasonable high plank for ilvl/weapon 90 Brd for a long fight.
If i90 could pull 300+ than i110 should pull 420+ and with i115 weapon should pull 450+ - that beyond reasonable numbers for bards.

If you haven't pulled it before, doesn't mean others can't lol.

All i90 DPS benchmarks are 300 and above on dummy, entirely possible.

Even for long fights, 300+ is still possible. I have done that pre 2.2 (ie, in 2.1 and earlier where max ilvl is 90) with my primal carry selling. Unless you solo heal, having 3 DPS for a Titan EX carry, your DPS needs to be good to push things, and 300+ for the entire fight is where you want to look at.

And yes, i110 BRDs can pull 420-450 depending on i110 or i115 weapon.

And nope, these are WITHOUT DRG buffs. My parsing method is no food, no DRG buff, 1 X-DEX used and approximately 3:20 - 3:30 for 2 Invigorate uses.

I did a dummy parse with the above methodology last week with i110 weapon, got 415. Did it with another FC BRD with HA Bow, he did 445.

EDIT: Insert the screenshot I took last week
