Fine-Tuning PLD rotation - tips?

[Mirateski]

Thanks everyone for the tips!

We have an ast/sch combo, in a9s the ast does the adds and the sch does the healing although I get regens from the ast periodically.

I've been doing clears in RF, as has the SCH, and when we met back up as a group after christmas I found that my hp was far less... wobbly. I didn't have any issues dumping halone completely (although I made our SCH cry) and I've been switching to SwO after first adds, hopping back in for scrapline. Probably as we get more used to the fight I'll be able to switch sooner.

(I do keep poking the blm about quelling, and I'm levelling WAR, because so far on a10s prog we don't have the dps for the steamroller even with a NIN subbing for our drg, and having a more reasonable group comp would help with that, I think)

That's more on the individual performance rather than the comp itself. To lack the damage to kill steamroller means that your damage dealers aren't performing to the standard.

A9s and a10s were both cleared in a day with i240s by the top groups, if your team somehow can't meet the damage requirement after so many months of gearing up, it can only mean 1 thing.

That's a group issue for sure since it doesn't fall just on the tanks but DPS as a whole, I'm glad to see your healers are adapting to you being in SwO however you say the Ast does adds and Sch does the healing? Does that mean that the Sch is the main or off healer?

It just sounds like DPS isn't up to snuff yet but keep practicing and you'll get it but parse yourself and keep posting you'll get responses, but as posted above me after so many months of gearing up this was cleared in 240 and the rest in crafted gear as we're coming up on the next hurdle of patches where you should already be way up there as a raider or have cleared, your group needs to step it up.

Get your DPS players to do the SSS for A10S if they havent already. Tell them to save their cooldowns for the steamroller phase if you need a little extra push.
