How to Dragoon Per Second: A DPS Paradigm

That sheet is out of date.

A new release of SimFF is out http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ulator-2-SimFF.

Of note, phlebotomize has been fixed to 24 second duration.

Also you can now enter your own damage formulas. Please take a look at the config file to see the default formulas used.

Important: if you have existing rotation scripts, you MUST change attr.aapotency to attr.aap, and attr.aadelay to attr.aad. I usually won't change the grammar in this way, however it was necessary for consistency and because the stat system backend changed a bit with the update.

So I've been fooling around with BiS for Dragoon, and I calculated the stats based on the stat weights posted about 2-3 pages behind.

A question I've been wondering is.. Do we stack crit? and then think of DET as secondary or are we still going for DET > CRT > SKS?

Anyways, the BiS list I found on this forum has a total weight of 1348.485 (http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/QYMT) But it is severly lacking in ACC

This is a list I put together, based off of stacking CRT which ends up weighing in at 1335.153 without food but the ACC is fairly high and in a range of what I would assume would be A4 (I'm talking out of my ass I have no idea what the acc caps are yet) but here's the list. (http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/QZP4)

Another question is, is this BiS a viable option?

[Aiurily]

skillspeed amount seems pretty excessive

maybe something like this would be more practical for a4s accuracy? since a1s already needs like 570 or so

not much for stat analyzing, how are the alex gear compared to eso for drg?

[Dervy]

652 is the maximum and 590 is the minimum I recommend for gearing, they're just soft-caps. It's best to be around 600-620 as around that mark is exactly 2.4GC.

I also believe Black Truffles will be optimal food for us, but gl solving for 2 hours on Ariyala.

And the gear is very heavy on stats.

Clicked away and this is what we get!

Black Truffle as optimal food, with minimum 570 accuracy and 590 sks. http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/R028

I actually thought that I should just be getting the pieces that gives det and focus on crit with the rest. Guess not derp.

[Dervy]

Skillspeed is way too high imo.

If there's an Accuracy requirement between 615-624, this is a really nice Set to use:

587 SS... But the Det/CRT easily make up for it.

Any higher then 625, then Auirilys set is optimal.

Oops! Realised that I posted the wrong link. Here's the correct one with Black Truffle as food. 580 Accuracy only though (which can probably only let us meet A1's accuracy requirements)

But yeah I gotta agree that Auirily's set is probably the optimal one for 625 SKS. ( http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/QZTK )
