How to Dragoon per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[GunksFoy]

Anyway, I hope people will try it and let me know what I'm missing. I highly doubt such a lynchpin of HW DRG theorycrafting would be subject to a simple oversight like that.

I think this is the biggest evidence against your theory, however it is theorycrafting and not factcrafting after all.

While I agree it is not necessarily quantifiable, this logic doesn't necessarily apply to casters. Spell speed will always be a dps increase for casters because more casts in a given time frame is always a dps increase, and also allows for the potential of getting in that extra cast before having to move. Sure, crit could potentially increase dps more, but ss consistently makes you faster and therefore more potent, as well as the DoT scaling with SMN now. But that's all for another thread. Additionally, I don't think this necessarily applies to drg because we aren't stacking it, simply hitting a given threshold and then all but avoiding it.

You have a point about the idea of stacking acc/det instead, however the problem is that crit is so much more valuable than det. I don't believe there is enough Det in the game currently to compensate the crit and ss you would lose, as ss is still a dps increase and has a stat weight in the end.
