Extremely disappointed in my Dragoon after attempting T4

[Ayasee]

Yeah I don't understand it. I easily put 310 in titan on my DRG. I have no idea if that was a bad parse on T4 or what, but it doesn't matter. Even if it's a bad parser, I'm still using the same one for my DRG and BRD. It's literally telling me that my BRD is on par with my DRG in terms of dps. It's actually making me quite angry considering I don't want to play BRD as main, but if it's so imbalanced, I will have to if I want to do the best DPS.

You don't need to, with your gear you should be outDPSing your BRD a lot.



Almost around ~2 week parse on Titan. Less ilvl90 than I currently have and the BRD at the top was much more geared than I was. Also, no limit break was used.

What's your rotation, tell me now.

Is there a PM function on the forum?

I've never truly understood parsing on this game, Sorry if I seem like a dummy...

So whenever people in my party have posted links to parsers I've found it difficult to understand that top "Boss total" dps number. When I look specifically at the Titan or Heart or anything like that it seems much much lower than the "Boss total". I guess whenever I've seen a parser I've assumed the top number to be absolutely wrong and gone off the individual monster or the total damage output numbers.

Can anyone elaborate on these numbers so perhaps I can understand them?


Thanks.

best dps is blackmage by a huge margin. at comparable level and gear they will do almost 20% more damage throughout. especially in coil since they dont really have to do much apart from dps-ing

I got in a discussion with my FC about this and they are pretty far in coil telling me the EXACT same thing lol. They swore that shit gear bard was doing more or equal damage than his main DRG, on excalibur sever no less I don't know if I believe it but if it is true that kind of sucks. Accuracy is not an issue with Bard until you have most i90 myth gear.

Numbers are staring you in the face with the answer. Just play Bard and get over it if it is really that big of a deal.

People are here putting out better numbers than you on DRG with similar gear on the same fight, clearly something is wrong on your end.

If you are normally parsing well, I don't understand how you are parsing so low on a dreadnaught where your job is to literally just stand still and push out as much dps as humanly possible for the entire phase...

Either A) your parser is not accurate or B) you are not putting as much dps as you could be putting out on your DRG.

It's one or the other. I'd also be curious to see what your rotation is compared to Ayase. It wouldn't mean much to me because I don't know DRG, but it would settle the debate of if you're using the right skills once and for all... because it seems people are doubting you.

Ayase. Can you tell me what you're doing different please?

Also... how the heck do you use this parser? It seems to analyze only things that happened an hour ago. How do I make it show me my parse for what I did 2 minutes ago?

But I thought you did more DPS then she did.
Seems everyone now wants Ayase's rotation seeing how good of a DRG she is.
I'll help you out a little, here use this
