Parsers and Problems

[QUOTE=Deviant1;3314055]Seriously? ok:

1. Hit the mob once then cast flash/medica2 repetitively
2. hit the mob once and have the tank focus on a different mob
3. be a nin and hit the mob once, let the tank get some hate then switch mobs and then use the enmity transfer ability (i dont remember the exact name)

Seriously?
Apparently Im being too vague. Lets take t13, there is no way in hell a dps can finish the encounter with 10dps and still be high on aggro ranking on BOSS aka Bahamut.

Im speaking on the dps class and its aggro, not any other class

Let me dumb it down real quick. Apparently Im being too vague. Lets take t13, there is no way in hell a dps can finish the encounter with 10dps and still be high on aggro ranking on BOSS aka Bahamut.

Sure there is.

Everyone else died and was resurrected, causing that 10 DPS to be collectively the highest threat generated. Mr. 10 DPS didn't die, so he now has the highest threat. Over a 13 minute encounter (it's what, 8 minutes of actually hitting bahamut? CAn't remember how much downtime you have during his jump and adds phase) the dragoon effectively did 4,800 damage.

Everyone being resurrected, even at 500 DPS right before the end, would still have to hit it for 10 seconds before it died. So let's say that it died 6 seconds after raising everyone. Bam. 10 DPS is highest because threat was dropped according to threat arguments.

Thats a cheap shot

But still their aggro dropped because their dps dropped

If a DPS finished the encounter with only 10 DPS, I'm assuming they spent 90% of the fight licking the floor. If it's a farming party, hopefully someone has the good sense to kick them out of it. To be fair, I did hear a rumor that floor tastes like strawberry.

If you'd chosen a less hyperbolic example, I probably wouldn't be responding so facetiously. :3
