How to Dragoon Per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[Ilyanat]

I'm pretty competitive as well, have to try not to drag other people down with me at times hahaha. I'm fine with monks being higher though, they're a good rival to have and together we can put out some outstanding damage. Plus it seems like their class is a little bit more of a headache but I'm not too sure.

Also, monks now being the top dps class (although just slightly above us) takes a bit of the target off our heads.

It's actually kind of impressive how just about every dps is viable from a raiding standpoint, although some classes still have QoL issues, and ninjas probably need a minor tp adjustment. Though it would be cool if goad gave some TP back to the ninja along with the goad target.

I'm guessing that is going to be the solution eventually, honestly.

My monk has been doing more DPS than myself even before the changes. They were always better for raids. It's just they bring no utility for DPS checks unlike a Ninjas TA and Battle Litany.

gdi. Well guess I'll have to be the vegeta then (he's way cooler than goku anyway lol).

How much do you guys parse in a fight like a1s? (with the new rotation from Dervy)

anyone else absolutely hates the eso gloves?
theres a random huge red spikes on them and it clips EVERYTHING.

i had to glamour it back to asura glove and dye it dark blue (which looks very cool btw)

It pretty much forced me to get off my butt and decide on a glamor, which I'd been putting off since HW dropped.

I went with Warwolf Skirt of Maiming while I was at it #makesokenproud

The set in general has a ton of clipping. High collars and long hair make me sad.

Self numbers don't matter in the grand scheme compared to raid numbers. It was like in ffxi how drg dps was mediocre but just having them in the fight for Angon which reduced the boss's defense by 25% raised everybody's dps substantially more than adding in a stronger raw dps job.

Which is why, in the future, SE should look more at synergy than raw dps numbers for all the classes (and added jobs down the road).

Though, i think they couldn't add utility this go around because it might upset certain groups that they may not be able to take advantage of new synergy until the next raid tier and gear "resets".
