Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Aiurily]

the upgraded poetics gloves would definitely be better, yes. the current drg bis non-crafted uses all leftside poetics except the belt, so it'd fit well into that if you want to go for that build vs crafted builds with higher weights

the belt/necklace are probably the worst poetic items for dragoon, but they're still better than 110 soldiery at 120 likely, 130 definitely.

As far as I know, head, gloves and belt are from coil. Where's that 410DET set that Dervy posted?

I dont know about crafted BiS, but as far as coil and Dreadwyrm go you want dreadwyrm helm, gloves, belt, neck, and ring. All the rest is poetics.

http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/PD79 is the bis with current weights, having 2.019 more str weighted (from skillspeed, granted)

i'll still go for the 410 det build though, since i already have all the leftside dreadwyrm pieces

Don't know if someone is really taking seriously that "BiS".

Only talking about Left Side.

still bis in numbers, despite skillspeed being 5.742 str worth of weight, having 370 does let you get an extra hit in during BfB (which is unaccounted for in testing afaik and a sizeable dps increase imo). if there were a 4* version of black truffle risotto and if we could turn that 5 excess accuracy into any other stat, the former set would be better, but those things aren't possible right now.

Since the last tests Dervy was running, where the more weight gear were not necessarily the most DPS, I'm very cautious about this minor SS increases. But it's a personal matter. I don't feel confortable with so many poetics peaces either. Just don't looks like "right".

But I would go for it if I had that bad lucky with FCoB drops, for sure.

http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/O7H5 is the 410 det, 0 skillspeed build

i'll still go for the 410 det build though, since i already have all the leftside dreadwyrm pieces minus the spear.

Thanks for the help guys. There are other pieces of left side gear I will upgrade first, but it's good to know the gloves will be an upgrade when I get to them.

Edit: Unless of course I get the Dreadwyrm gloves before then!
