Why I Decided to Become an Elitist

Oh yeah, he can do Final Coil and Extreme Primals... the very same content they are being shut out from by you elitists. Nice.

Or crafted i110 weapons orrrr the WoD, CT, ST quest as listed above (that you ignored). So now.. one great thing about this game is that we have multiple options for our lootz.

I challenge you to pull 200 DPS on a STRIKING DUMMY using a monk who has to stop hitting and let stacks fall every 15 seconds because you're simulating dodging Angra Manyu mechanics, with an i90 weapon and mostly soldiery gear.

Also, crafted weapons are only for people with bazillions of gil, Crystal Tower don't drop weapons and you are assuming everybody can log in every day to farm Poetics.

There is literally no time where you need to drop stacks to dodge a mechanic. Mortal Gaze? Turn around just before. Double Vision? Stay close to the boss. Level x Flare/Death? Run out for a few seconds, run back in, stacks don't fall off. Hourglasses? Punch them instead.

Our monk in t5 back when i90 was the cap did more than 250 in t5 alone. Dummy's mean nothing. Content is whats important since you get all kinds of buffs from your party to enhance damage. Nice try though.

First rule of being a good dps: Striking dummies mean nothing. DPS always looks different on an actual boss. :P

EDIT: You really have no idea what you are talking about, lol

I don't think I have ever lost stacks on MNK in that fight. And that encapsulates part of the issue. If someone is losing stacks on it then maybe that's something they should work on rather than just accepting it as the way it is. I don't understand how these concepts are so foreign to people.

EDIT: I'm starting to wonder if you are just trolling. If so, good job, You got me!

I actually know that. I pulled the striking dummy card BECAUSE of that. KNOWING that DPS on a striking dummy is higher than in an actual fight, I challenged the notion that 200 DPS is a bare minimum acceptable by saying that not even on a striking dummy it is possible.

Because it's easier to blame everything else and not look at yourself and ask "What can I do better?". (Meaning you in a general term, not you sepecifically :P)

I actually know that.

So you're actively admitting to trolling now? Hah. It's time to walk away. You aren't helping yourself or your argument. Take a breather and rethink this course.

Way to completely fail in every way to acknowledge how wrong you were about the i90 weapon thing btw. Such a big man!

If you think i90 doing 200 on a striking dummy isn't possible? Wow, you must know absolutely terrible dps.

I have a feeling he wants someone to prove him wrong just so he can go "THIS PERSON USES A PARSER, BAN HIM". He can't legitimately think it's impossible to break 200 dps on a WOD boss, let alone a striking dummy with any difficulty.
