"Healer DPS is not taken into account" for raids

[Ghishlain]

Fixed. There's no way a WHM is going to hit 10% at endgame accuracy levels without melding every piece of gear with ACC.

I'm not sure how SCH accuracy requirements are different from WHM accuracy requirements if both are aiming for 100% accuracy on all spells (including Miasma, Energy Drain, and Aero). I don't think a SCH can do 10% with uncapped accuracy even with auto-hitting DoTs, but would like to be proven wrong in this respect.

You'll want a fully ACC melded relic, three pieces of gear melded with accuracy, and food for capped T13 for either if you have any real intention of doing DPS as a healer with 100% or near 100% accuracy.

Random edit: Just one more point, if you ABSOLUTELY WANT TO MAXIMIZE SCH DPS you might make the argument to get SCH accuracy high enough for Flank Accuracy so you can auto-attack book while using Ruin II. . . ( which means SCH has a higher ACC requirement than WHM in some twisted convoluted way )

Also, if you're putting out much more than 10% of the raid DPS as healer in T13, chances are either that the rest of your party is significantly less amazing at DPS than you and/or you are milking tons of extra damage on the add phase (which becomes more of a thing when your party can't burst down adds very quickly).

They sum up the basic DPS for four DPS and tanks at that assumed item level and cut that by about 10-15% for the minimum clear DPS. Healer DPS is not taken into account when this is set.

Hehe, from the looks of it though, they sum up nearly the "best" dps (not basic) the four DPS + tank could do in order to tune endgame.

So yeah I guess that it really only applies to Endgame while under geared that you would need any healer assisted DPS. ;p

Imagine being able to play at that level of skill though to always reach max capacity of your Job DPS.

Like, look at the elite endgame teams who were in penta melded i110 crafted gear and i90 accessories for HP, using Pots and Healer DPS, with the most ideal party setups and just sqeeking by on their T13 wins before enrage.

Aside from meeting accuracy caps, and losing some primary stats on the i90 accessories, the melded i110 crafted (body) are nearly i130 pieces in some cases.

So probably bringing the equivalent ilvl to ~i120

I'm assuming T13 was tuned around i123 gear (DF limit)

So that means you should be able to manage it well in i115 (normal, non-crafted) gear, without pots and no healer DPS?!?!?!

Go home Yoshi P, you're drunk.

It's also more than possible to clear t5 and t9 below the ilvl limits the DF sets for them.

Keep in mind that their design ilvl and the DF ilvl are not necessarily the same. The DF ilvl requirement assumes a group may be pugging it (rather than a preformed static thing). And then there's also that exceptional players can exceed dev expectations. They don't tune the fights for Blue Gartr and Lucrezia, etc.

No, it says they take that tank and dps number and adjust by 10-15%. That should be plenty of wiggle room for a bit of gear discrepancy, or not keeping up exact perfect dps, and still be doable but challenging.

Not that I really care, since it is unlikely I will ever be in that kind of raid :/ scheduling simply will not allow.

I see your point but some small nitpicks:

MNK MNK, the world first comps, is quite unideal. It was ideal at the time due to time constraints, but if you wanna talk about what they tuned it for, it was probably NIN MNK rather than MNK MNK.

No one knew of Cover week 1 for ES. That singlehandedly is between 1-2%. Testing might have taken that into consideration since it's clearly an intended workaround.

Lots of missing potential healer/tank DPS to go beyond the bounds of what groups did week 1, even in that gear. That comes from having that turn on farm for more than 7 months though and knowing every cleave and AA to the T.

My beef with this is that I'm stuck with players who honestly believe healer DPS was calculated into raids, and that the devs made a mistake removing accuracy from all their gear, all while trying to push their stupid crap on others. So I and many other get stuck with even more useless healers who don't know the first thing about making it easier on themselves. Just the constant teetering at the edge of failure for the sole sake of dealing all the damage possible.

And I don't find that attacking at all is a bad thing. There's a lot wrong with WHY you did it than just doing it. . .. until you fail to keep players alive at which case yes there is a lot wrong with that too.

[Luciddreamer]

It depends on the group I end up with.If people are new or I see they are not executing the mechanics the way they should.I won't dps at all.But if I get a group that are doing things flawlessly.I will stance dance and heal when necessary.Healing always comes first to me.Dps second :3

Well healers are used to raising things.......
