Bard Final Coil Dps?

[vedobsu]

I currently average 435dps in t10, t11 about 400, t12 400, I averaged those numbers with all Ironworks gear with the exception of the bard wod chest piece (I currently received the dreadwyrm earring and bracelet this week). My question is are those numbers decent based on the gear I was using (my ilvl is 129, zeta bow crit/det)?

I suck as BRD. I played it from September 2013 until about two weeks ago, and my damage suck. I do not have the right to let you know if your damage is good.

[vedobsu]

haha no problem

400 looks good, not the best but still decent.
With training I think you will be able to push 450 on T10 and a bit more on t11-t12 but you're doing almost the same numbers as our bard who has a similar gear so I guess you don't have to worry about your dps

Also got similar gears and numbers mate. As this guy said, not the best but can easily be improved upon.

Hrm, your numbers could be higher. With your gear and weapon, you should be averaging around 450 DPS. How often and long are you singing Mage's Ballad or Army's Paeon? Do you make the most out of Barrage and your auto-attacks in general? How often do you get KO'd during a fight? Are those numbers from continuous parses?

I don't know, we need to see the OP's gear. I average around 470 on t10 (I got 480 on my last run), and 450-470 on t13 (could be better, trying to optimize the add phase). It's pretty difficult to push past the 450 threshold on both 10 and 11 if your group needs a good amount of Paeon, which will come down to how fast your group is pushing phases.

@OP: T11: Are you attacking the sphere or cube? Are you strafing in the last phase? Finally, when are you singing Paeon and for how long? Those are the three biggest factors of increasing dps in 11.

The most important factor is if you have a DRG and NIN. It's a pretty considerable increase in DPS. THEN we can tell where you stand.

My BRD averages about 515 for T10 and close to 500 in other turns and he thinks it's low because we don't really focus on his numbers.
One of my BRD friends get's 530+ in T10 because his group caters a bit more to him.

If you wanna see a pretty big spike in damage in BRD damage here's my tips.
Multidot the adds in T10, that's a lot of damage. Also obviously sing Foe's at the start and by the time the 2nd Adds are about die you can sing Paeon and I'd recommend to Battle Voice it to get that TP burts and sing less. That should be the only song you should have to sing in the entire fight. Time your singing when you have no cool-downs up and that should be it.

When I compare this gearset http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/PXIH which, as far as I can tell, is the one you used. Against my t10 gearset http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/PTEH and calculate expected output from each set i get

1.02405594318

as the ratio of yoursetsdps/mysetsdps. So you should do approximately 2.5% more dps than I do. This previous week I parsed 532 dps in t10 with a dragoon and no ninja. 2 weeks ago I parsed 513.47 dps with a ninja and no dragoon.

By my math you should be able to do 525 dps with a ninja and 545 dps with a dragoon (on a good parse). I sadly don't have any recent dragoon+ninja parses to compare or any nodrg+noninja.

Regarding your stuff, it is a bit low...
Actually, I would say you can improve by ~30 per turn without any problem. More if drg-nin as it has been said before.
