How to Dragoon Per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[Scum]

Uhmm like 0.015% difference between the two jobs on a Dummy.

At i195:

My Static Monk: 1330
My Dragoon: 1310

Conditions? i.e; party str buff, food, pot, etc.

No food, no pots, no party buff, no selenes, no ast no ninja, nothing. Just raw rotation.

Dervy when do you pop ir after the opener? I pop mine (the next time it's off cd) at CT is this the optimal place?

There's also a chart in the OP, I assume it's still valid:

In this chart, we can see all of the optimal places to use Blood for Blood. In order of highest PPS, you should use BFB before this skill:

1) Vorpal Thrust
2) Impulse Drive
3) Disembowel
4) Full Thrust
5) Chaos Thrust

Popping it before CT would be better, at least for me it usually comes off cd between CT-4th, so I hold it and pop between 4th-Phleb, which according to Dervy's math is the optimal place at that point in time
