BRD i110 DPS output

[PenelopeWinn]

Quick question. I'm curious as to what a non "BiS" 110 BRDs dps number should be looking like after a 4 minuet parse. Had a friend kind enough to check mine on a dummy, shiva, and a couple other random things and would just like some real life numbers to hopefully get a feel of how much i need to improve to be an asset.

Changing my main from War to BRD due to static mumbojumbo.

330 to 350 mayb? Was hitting that on t8 with a full sold brd pre 2.4. not sure about echo now

Depends quite a bit on the weapon. i110 weap or i115? Some parses are also misleading because people will use a lvl50 dummy and Misery's End. Others have also used party buffs, food, pots, and DRG's Disembowel to pad numbers.

So with cheesed numbers and i115 weap... 470+. More realistic numbers with no party buffs, pots, dismebowel, or Misery's End. Probably more like 390 to 410. The range on BRD can be fairly broad because of RNG procs.

With an i110 weap I would have to do some testing. It's been a while. But I would guess about ~15 - 20 DPS lower than i115. Roughly.

Apologies if my numbers are off. Currently at work and unable to test immediately. My goldfish memory can't remember i110 and i115 numbers with absolute certainly since I've recently obtained better bow.

Ok thats not to far off. Dummy i was cappin out at 373 is what i think he said it was, in fights i was abit lower 320-330ish but ima go ahead and chalk that up to lack of practice and skill + situational thingys.

Ya i had to end up going to summerford because the ones in the homes just die wayyyy to fast, which tempted me so much to use it.
Welp if your right about 20 dps lower for 110 (its shivas bow so dont even get the rosen crit.) then i guess im on schedule.

Also with the new Ironworks gear numbers will now vary as the Soldiery gear for the most part is not all too great

Ya the only Sol pieces i can honestly say i like are the chest, belt, and i guess a couple accs.

K. did a little test with my current gear for you. 4 min runs as you mentioned in the first post. No party, food, pots, Misery's End, DRG, etc. ~440 w/ i130 bow (i115). ~400 w/ i110 Shiva bow (i112). Not quite i110 but close enough. Should note I have a good bit of crafted gear along with the slightly higher ilvl. so maybe subtract 10 - 20 DPS, and it should be close enough.

I think my original estimate of around 370-390 @ i110 seems reasonable. Good on you since you mentioned you are hitting that range. With some practice I'm sure you'll be able to execute just as well in combat.

My bard is currently i110. On my last ST run I parsed 397 for the entire raid, and 403 during Amon which was about a 4 min fight. I wasn't trying for my best possible parse but it should give you something to work with.

More realistic numbers with no party buffs, pots, dismebowel, or Misery's End.

Why are we ignoring Bard's finisher when performing parses?

Not that I am in any way endorsing parses, because I am not. And I am actually shocked that you people are openly talking about using parsers on the official site when it is known that Square-Enix is against their use. But I am curious as to the answer of my question.
