How to Dragoon per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[Shamox]

Yup, you just have to click on the name of the boss you want to check and you'll have the top 200 instead of 10.

During a part of the patch, i reached a bit over 1.3k crit rate... Of course at 600 determination. But still, having such a high natural crit rate felt so good and satisfying. Of course damage wasn't that great...

I'm currently i256 with the i260 Shire weapon and on the SSS A12S dummy I seem to fail at 1% every time which is just a tick shy of 2300 DPS. I am doing pretty subpar for my iLvl? Not sure what I can do to improve my numbers, I've been following the guide on the rotation on the first page.

Your DPS is fine. Even with the 270 weapon the dummy is a close shave if you don't have much other gear. The dummies are way overtuned and probably assume 0 healer DPS.

Can someone better elaborate on this? Do I continue this exact cycle?

Is it safe to go for that set or will there be better possibilities with slight higher stat weights ect.?

Not really, I guess it's the best you can get with the 270 wpn.
Probably with the relic if it's 270.

Well, I learned with this guide:

I think it's better to use accu melds elsewhere since your relic will most likely have little to no accu.

They better not fuck up drg in 4.0, else we riot.

On a serious note, anyone got an idea how drg will look like with reworked skills? Interested to know if we're gonna have an dumbed down rotation or not (hope not)

They can probably do away with power surge and life surge and make heavy thrust a passive trait or stance.

[jack891]

Hmmm we cud end up with two 4 tier combos starting with heavy thrust, for example:
HT>DIS>CT>4TH
HT>VT>FT>4TH

that removes 3 GCDs=ID, TT and Phleb
HT would have to be reduced to about 10 seconds and maybe have its positional changed to the rear
thats my theory anyway but who knows could be anything i just hope they keep the rng of wheeling and fang
