Connecting the DoTs: A Summoner Guide

[Forge]

Updated rotation with me saving last AF stack to ensure I enter every DWT with full stacks. And also fitting in 2 festers in DWT.

Parses at around 1120 in 3 minutes. Hive weapon, full I170 left side and right side.


p.s: playing summoner on a controller is the true endgame ;-;


Now to level BLM to see what all the complaints are about.

Would you mind linking your parse? This is my initial test parse with garuda at i180 +hive with about 1000+dps @ 4 minutes.

It's pretty solid at the moment, but I'll be working on reallocating my Aether stacks and DWT timings because I think I can end up pulling more at the four minute mark. I'm going to be testing Ifrit over the next few days, since I think he has the potential to parse higher in actual fights where party damage is going out.

EDIT: I'll go ahead and copy/pasta my actual rotation and explanation behind it which is under the video..

Opener: Pre-pop Spur + Rouse + Quelling Strikes , Precast Bio II (Enkindle) , Miasma , Bio I (Energy Drain) , Fester (Pain Flare) , Dreadwyrm Trance (Raging Strikes + Pot) , Tri-disaster (Aetherflow) , Miasma II (Swift Cast) , Shadowflare (Fester + Contagion) , Ruin III , Ruin III (Pain Flare) , Death Flare , Ruin II (Fester)

From this point on maintain your DoTs and continue spamming Ruin II when you are able. When Dreadwyrm Trance comes back up use it and re-apply your DoTs and cast Ruin III when able, closing with Death Flare. Burn your next set of Aether stacks to line up with Tridisaster/Contagion/Swiftcast. From that point on Aetherflow, Tri-disaster, Contagion, and Swiftcast will all come off cool down at the same time and you will be able to re-apply 10%+ damage contagion'd DoTs every minute, while also allowing the optimal amount of Ruin III casts within Dreadwyrm Trance.
