How to Dragoon Per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[bj0rN]

Oh, wow, that's great to hear. Definitely makes sense to burn Leg Sweep earlier, then, since Geirskogul timing is pretty immaterial. Should be:

HT -> (BL+(BFB -> ID -> (Pot -> Dis -> (IR+BotD -> CT -> PS+GK -> 4th -> Jump -> Phleb -> DFD/SSD -> TT -> DFD/SSD -> VT -> GK+LS -> FT))) -> 4th)

Personally, I want to favor IR+BotD rather than BotD+IR, since the former gives us a fraction of a second more leeway for Blood of the Dragon's timer. Does BotD+IR give us IR for the 4th combo hit after FT or something?

Thendiel, you forgot LegS from the rotation you stated. I presume this is what you wanted to formulate

HT -> (BL+(BFB -> ID -> (Pot -> Dis -> (IR+BotD -> CT -> PS+LegS -> 4th -> Jump -> Phleb -> DFD/SSD -> TT -> DFD/SSD -> VT -> GK+LS -> FT))) -> 4th)

Using GK or LS first would be dependent on if it's a single target or a group I presume? Since LS ensures critical damage for next weapon-skill for 10s. Damage dealt will be absorbed as HP, up to 10% of maximum HP.

If we use LS before GK, it can ensures critical damage for GK on a group of mobs (it be great if someone can clarify that with me). And if we use LS after GK (before FT), then we will be dealing a lot more on one target since FT has a potency of 360 as compared to GK with a potency of 200.

GK extends the duration of BotD, so popping earlier would also be the "safer choice". But I don't think it will be detrimental if it is used after, since BotD was also used after IR in the earlier parts of the rotation.
