NIN dps in T12

[Ooshima]

What is your ilvl and your gear?

If you are in the low 400s come the Bennu phase, you may be doing something wrong. With an i115 Weapon and ilvl of i112, I was around 480~ come the end of phase 2, iirc.

If you are getting to the last phase bear in mind that each jump will lower your dps quite a bit.

Bennu phase also has some pause/break effect to it so that could easily lower your dps potentional. I typically lose a lot of DPS to the bennu phase as ninja, for whichever reason ( I don't AoE)

If you are pushing 4 bennu:

Kill small benu #1
Move
Kill small benu #2
Move
Kill big Bennu #1
Kill small benu #3
Move
Kill big Bennu #2
Kill small benu #4
Move
Kill big Bennu #3
Kill big Bennu #4

If you do it like this, you'll always have something to hit instead of sitting idle and waiting for the birds to resurrect.

I'm aware of how the Bennu's work xD. I lose DPS most likely because I lose DE for that phase and there is a pause. Also if your DPS is quick enough, like my groups. You may have to wait a bit even if you follow that pattern. I think it is also important to note that if you have two big bennu's up they will take reduced damage.
