    I haven't seen so many illiterate people in such a long time. If you guys ever bothered to read Ooshima's post before the edit, it was painfully obvious what was meant in it. Anyways the solution is simple, just have 1 member with an early cull and 1 member with a long cull and bam you now have more information. The most consistent way to compare DPS across groups in t9 is still unculled + kill time though.

    I know what you are trying to imply, the lower the groups DPS as a whole the better the DPS for me because of the downtime before Megaflare and yeah that's true. That's why T9 should never be used for DPS measurement unless you are parsing phase by phase.
    That, and triple flaring the add is overkill and stat padding your numbers with useless DPS (which you said you did in another thread).

    I'd be very interested to see the proof and to see how much Foe's you get with two bards, because that is obviously going to be a large factor. Same with your kill time.

    Foes are up pretty much the entire fight and kill time is around 11-11:30 mins.

    Also, triple flaring the add isn't really useless DPS since the other DPS stay on Nael while I triple flare then LB immediately after.

    Sigh... Don't understand why people are arguing whether to measure the temperature of drink by degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit is better.

    Merged DPS lets you gauge better in between phases how much your doing, aka hitting a sand dummy. Unmerged DPS (aka encounter DPS) measure your DPS over the whole encounter. A good DPS worth their salt will work to maximise both.

    What matters is just which stat do you use to compare with which. It's like one person saying I'm 100 degrees, another one says no I'm 212 degrees you suck, but the one at 100 degress is measuring with Celsius and the one at 212 degrees is measuring with Fahrenheit, and for the uninformed it's both equal temperature.

    Some like it easy to just take Merged DPS, since it allows you more awareness of which phases are your strengths and use it to compare everything from there on. Some like to use unmerged DPS to see your capability to react to the encounter. Both are not wrong so seriously stop arguing which one is better. Gosh.
