Connecting the DoTs: A Summoner Guide

[Sunako]

I had problem before count radiant shield damage before because fflogs did not show it, but today I noticed it have been updated. These numbers are based by my weekly v1s 4.3k summoner parse. Seems like ifrit bring physical vulne that is overall worth of 100 dps for physical dps classes and radiant shield bring another 100 dps (that also depends on fight). So SMN utility is close 250 dps(with devotion) if using ifrit in solo caster party. That is actually overall more damage increase than embolden from RDM(but you sacrifice little your own dps so its not the same). Garuda may provide more personal dps, but ifrit more raid dps utility imo.

Radiant shield damage Deltascape v1 Savage.

MNK 4.9k
SMN 3.1k
NIN 4.6k
BRD 4.1k
PLD 17.6k
DRK 14.5k
WHM 0.147k
AST 0.125k

overall = 49k
encounter time = 7min 11sec = 431 sec
49 000 damage / 431 second = 114 dps

If every physical dps class do around 4k dps and tanks like 3k dps that is total 18k physical dps.
18000 x 0.02(ifrit buff) x 0.33(uptime) = 119 dps
