So I'm somewhat new to MMO's, I've only played FF14 since release so a couple of months, and I want to make sure that I am playing correctly. Today while running Garuda HM some guy absolutely freaked out on me, because my Windbite hit for 129. I have full DL w/ one lvl 49 Spinel Ring and relic weapon, so is that bad? What am I doing wrong that it's hitting so low.

Other than that if anyone could give me some advice to my normal rotation that would be great. It is as follows:

Straight Shot-Bloodletter-Windbite-Silence(depending on fight)-Venomous Bite-spam HeavyShot, then bloodletter/straighter shot when available and dots when there's 1-2 seconds left. Oh and Flaming Arrow at begging of fight, and whenever it's available.

For buffs I use them all at the beginning of fight and again once they are available. I kinda feel like that's not the right way to maximize effectiveness so some advice would be great. Thank you in advance to anyone who responds!
