[Theorycraft] BLM Openers

yes.. Cats are cute and dumb, low intelligent
That's why ppl prefers dogs

LOL I <3 you for that

[alphamax112]

That's... questionable. Most ninjas in Gilgamesh I questioned all told me they do TA after 4th GCD. That 10% there is was prevents you from breaking 1k+ burst.

Seems like that xD
I have a question : Does dunesfolks always have enough MP to flare in your B3 opener?
My only options are stick with T2 opener to guarantee the flare, or gamble on the MP regen ticks with B3 opener, or change to dunesfolk LOL

They do if they have a Scholar. There is a really small chance (5% maybe) that you will be stuck at 3406 mana after B3 > T1 > F3. This is due that you didn't get a mana tick somewhere. The opener isn't perfect and you can't time it since you are not the one opening. I'd need to makes hours and hours of test to get proper % ;;

Also, keeper of the Moon can open with B3 like DUnefolks, they only have lower Intelligence.

Hope Au Ra isn't as dumb as cats xD

Lizard haz brain? o_O
Anyway, I learned something from you Aikaal-sama, combined with the knowledge I got from Puro-sama, I managed to clear my first T13 as top DPS yesterday, with 30 DPS gap to 2nd top DPS (DRG) and 50 DPS gap to 3rd top DPS (MNK)

Getting highest on T13 is easy. But then you would have to sacrifice your Monk's DPS by not leaving the gusts up for them to keep their stacks during Teraflare.

Sometimes I wish our static never had a Monk.

I mean addphase literally does not matter at all. Its a set DPS check - it doesnt matter if you have 15k DPS in that phase or if you have 2180 DPS - if everything dies, that's it. The only way to increase add phase DPS is to push with the 3rd drake spawning after dives.

It doesn't matter from a raid dps perspective but it definitely matters for individual dps, if blackmages were suddenly given a flarebuff where instead of dealing 240 potency it just 1hits any add they'd flare all the adds, instantly killing them all, and getting a massive amount of dps for the 3 minute period that is the 3rd phase, everyone else in the group would deal 0 damage during this time, the bard, monk, and dragoon clearly do less dps and the blm clearly does much more dps in this phase, which then translates to decreases / an increase in overall dps, respectively. Blackmages may not get a 1 hit mechanic but they're dealing more of the required damage in the addphase than their teammates because of aoe, if you dont let them hit the gusts their dps goes down in order for everyone else's (particularly the monks) to go up.
