    Average DPS for different jobs in T9?

    This is a curiosity post more than anything.
    How much DPS should I be grating in T9 as a BLM? I was told I had 310 my first clear, but that doesn't feel comfortable

    It's when an encounter is split into multiple parses when there is any significant downtime in dps actions done that exceeds your program's time limit. What happens is while no one is attacking (say during Megaflare in T9) the last encounter is considered concluded and a new parse begins when you begin attacking again. What merged means is you take these multiple split up encounters and "merge" them together for an average. Unmerged means your program does not reset during down time, and tracks the entire fight start to finish including downtime. Merged encounters tend to show much higher numbers than unmerged ones, and many feel they are an inaccurate way to read dps number.

    unmerged counts no dps time, such as phase transitions where no mob can be attacked (like titans jumps, or Nael's meteor streams). Merged cuts that time out, then combines the "dps only" pieces.

    and I always thought "merged" time wasn't DPS but eDPS?
