How to Dragoon Per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[JackFross]

I don't think it does that. The jumps feel faster because they sped them up yet again in the expansion. I did not notice any change at all from zero skill speed to sonic skill speed.

Have an AST throw an Enhanced Arrow at you and tell me it didn't speed up. You're looking at a GCD difference of 0.1s and using a skill that takes about 1.7s to fully perform, animation-wise. At 2.4 that's maybe down to 1.65 or so. At the 2.1 you can get to, it cuts down to around 1.4 and the difference becomes readily apparent. (I assume; these numbers are all made up on the spot.) At that said lower SS value, I was still able to do my full opener without any GCD delay at a breakneck pace, so either the animations for every skill are shortened in accordance with SS or the animations are already short enough that they'll fit neatly in a 2.1s gcd, which seems unlikely due to how many people seem to struggle to fit them in 2.4s currently, due to slight latency.

I could be wrong, but that's my experience of it.
