Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Sleigh]

With Stoneskin, Megaflare can't kill you with B4B on. Gear dependent I suppose but I think as long as you have some i120s/i130s left-side you should be fine and can use it without abandon in your opener.

I actually DGAF about B4B in most of T13 as DRG with a decent amount of i130s. Basically the only thing that scares me is final phase Megaflare > tower/nail/whatever explosion, I won't B4B before Megaflares there, not worth the risk.

I wish Ayvar would update the Stat Weights in Page 1, I had to scroll through 30 pages to check what it was. (It's in page 427 btw)

Yeah I'd like to know the BiS for melded gear.

I got the T11 head, haha.

Descending from highest weight to lowest. These are the ones I'd recommend, but pick depending on your budget as they're extremely expensive.

Ok dervy I like te top choice. So looking at the list , obviously the highlight piece are the once to b use, but looking at the boots I thought the only viable piece that's crafted to be use is the waist. If you don't mind can u list the stat weight for melded vs iron works. Only ask for iron work since I'm not in any raid grp atm. I did the stat weight for ilvl 130 gloves iron vs melded, and I thought the iron works is best.

[Dervy]

Don't even need to do the math. The ironworks boots have a higher weight. However. Just because one item has a higher weight over another, it does not necessarily make it the better item in set. Crafted Pieces give more room to use other gear pieces. The reason why the Crafted BiS set uses the boots is all because of the amount of SkillSpeed you can stack using both the Boots and Gloves combined in a set together. There's no point to using either the Boots or the Gloves by themselves.

442 - 359 = 83 * 0.198 = 16.434

You'd need around 50 more DET to make up for the 83 skillspeed gained. 50*0.327 = 16.35. Or, 17 strength.

Pretty strong if you ask me, especially if you have a Ninja in your group who can give you Goad. You'll be doing some serious work over a long period of time.
