DPS check for turn 8?

1.

Not having issuesor being able to kill something doesn't mean that it's efficient or that the person does the best he/she could do.

2.

Correct it's a choice. Like i said before you can choose between playing the most efficient way or you make adjustements and sacrifice some of the efficiency. Because if you boil it down every other strategy was at some point part of the most efficient Strategy. Your opinion on an strategy doesn't determine the efficiency of it, it only determines which strategy suits your group the best and that's a difference.

3.

If you have sometimes trouble skipping the dread than it just proofs that your strategy isn't as efficient (from your bragging how easy your groups kills t8 everytime easily and that you have no problems i assume that your average group ilvl is 100+). Because with that ilvl you should be able to always skip the dread especially if your Sch is dpsing all the time and you're throwing some dots in while you have downtime like you said before. And like i also said before there is no possible random hit except for homing which will hit the group. Maybe a mine but that shouldn't hit more than 1 or 2 additional people and they should survive even if you don't instantly top them off :P
But regardless of that, if it works for you group then it's fine. But you shouldn't assume that your adjusted strategy is that good for other groups, especially when it's a group that still sturggles with the dps check. Rather try to give them a more neutral strategy without too many adjustements. that gives them room to find there one "best" strategy.

I also disagree with the fact that SMN needs ballad in t8.

Not quiet sure about this one since i couldn't test it often enough, but a SMN should profit more from 1 more foes and using energy drain than from a ballad.

Snip.

1. I never said it was. I said it's efficient for US. And that you trying to say someone isn't putting in their best effort without knowing the situation is absurd.
2. I don't see how something can be more efficient over something else if it's working as it should. I don't think my method is any less efficient than another method if it's working as intended. It's just a difference in choice. I don't get what you're trying to prove.
3.I never said we were having trouble skipping dreads. Nor am I bragging. If a dps dies for whatever reason or we need to sing a ballad or just whatever comes up and we can't skip the dread for that reason (when we're normally accustomed to it) is something I like to be prepared for. I rather know if ANYTHING HAPPENS my group won't wipe. That's MY mentality as a healer. It's not wrong or inefficient as it works out just fine. Which at the end of th eday is all that matters to me.

Like is said before, as long as it works for you it's fine. And how something can be more efficient... If strategies wouldn't be more or less efficient there would be no point in for example speed kills/runs. Ofc in case of t8 it's prolly neglectable since it's only 30 sec maybe 1 min difference (atleast after you're overgeared) so really nothing serious. But if you're still struggling with the dps that difference is huge. That's why i'm saying you should never give someone who is still struggling your own adjusted strategy. Most times that group will have an even harder life after they got an adjusted strategy.

I also never said that you should switch your strategy for your own group just because it's not as efficient. And i didn't mean any offense against you with it. Isimply tried to point out why your strategy isn't as efficient and why it's bad to pass this strategy to groups like OPs group.
