How to Dragoon per Second: A DPS Paradigm

A5S: Between 647 -> 656
A6S: 676 -> 680
A7S: 686 (recorded miss at 685)
A8S: 696 -> 705.

A7S: 685
A8S: 696 -> 705.

It looks accurate.

Thank you very much. Yeah, I wasn't planning on multiple sets anyway - it's mainly to make sure that I have enough accuracy during training/that by the end of certain ugrades I won't be extremely overcapped.

I have reached the lore stone cap twice now.
My dragoon is on his way to full 210, need 3 or 4 more VA runs to upgrade accessories to 210.
Would you guys recommend saving Lore stones for something like a weapon, or just buy gear with my 900 right now?

Edit: I only have 1 midan gear so far, so i'll probably buy some 230 armor, and time it correctly so I'll have my 1000 lore stones ready, the moment I obtain my 7th Midan gear

Buy 'Slipstream Breeches of Maiming' (legs) first, you have enough time to get the 1.000 lore while you get the midan gear you're missing.

Looks like you could have melded Crit in areas that you melded det and accuracy. Meanwhile you used det4s which you could have spent on accuracy though I'm imagining at this point you're meaning you have too much accuracy, as with food and one meld swap you'd be comfortably within cap range of a8s.

Honestly if you were going to go that all out with crafted gear and overmelding I would have gone the vitality route with my right side. As it stands you don't really have any effective way to dump SS or Acc without remelding or switching to lore/midan.

Having a bit of trouble figuring out what to upgrade right now after I get my Lore Weapon next week. It's going to take a while for my FC to tackle Midas 1 Savage, much less Midas 4 Savage, so I currently have an unmelded HQ Crafted chest waiting to be melded right now. I was thinking about going for the belt and gloves next, boosting my crit to as close as 1000 as possible in the process, but I'm at a loss of what to do after that. I do know that I don't need accuracy higher than 680 since it's going to take my group a while to get there.

Current gearset is: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/TOMX

Edit:

Is there a lower limit or minimum expectation on how high DET should be? Or should you just ignore it in favor of more Crit?

[Ninjah2r]

with acc problems I meant having too low accuracy, I now swapped out my belt for a crafted one. Check the link again lodestone should update my gear.

You're kind of in a bad spot since you put rank 5s in the weapon and your other lore pieces. You'd need to swap one of them for a rank 4 accuracy or consider changing pieces or using suboptimal food. With HQ pipira pira and the meld swap you'll be right at the 705 needed for A8S. Beyond that... you are in the same guild as the creator of this guide
