How to Dragoon Per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[Dervy]

It's the "advanced" Dragoon opener that's on the OP for a bigger burst. Nothing new really.

i-if you want, you could put a video of the opener under that section (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI1KW1qSx9U)

he does gk+ls, which is a bit weird, but the same for the most part. a note on this is that fey wind on pull will make it so that you hit the 4th with a few buffs still on, which is pretty neat

I'm building up a library of Videos which will be put in the "Number Crunching" post. The "perfect" raid/parse examples, not necessarily highest parsed, will be put there as an example on how to correctly handle the mechanics with little downtime or amazing rotation flow.

Hopefully other people agree this is a good idea.

please stop using geirskogul after combos 1/3/5. you are shooting yourself in the foot here with the placement of your second geirskogul. there is a 0 damage increase by using it after 3 and it's simply better to cast it after 4 granting you ~3 extra seconds margin for error.

the only time you should use geirskogul after combo 3 is if mechanics dictate it or you are trying to get 2 under blood for blood.

im not sure if i'd be interested in watching videos, but i would love to hear the tricks that dragoons do to increase uptime. i've always got a couple tricks for every fight to maximize dps. i wouldn't mind sharing mine either.

edit:

also ideal rotation on groups of 2 would be

H-IDC4P-IDC4P with geirskoguls used as normal?

should be about a 25% increase in damage right? ive been going through this rotation once in the hand phase of A3 and using geirskogul twice.

I didn't realize dragoon animations were this cool. They must've added a lot of new ones cause the old stuff kinda sucked.

You kidding me? DRG was one of the best jobs for looking good while filling out the T7 bingo. No breakdance, minimal particle effect auras, just perfect freeze frames every time.

if you do HT>jump, jump will not be buffed by HT
if you do disembowel>jump, jump will not be buffed by disembowel
