How to Dragoon per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[Khel]

<snip> (1:20 CD). Also, we are going to be able to use 3 Nastronds in the same Life of the Dragon, maybe 4 but that would be super tight, I actually don't think we can pull that off.

How are you getting 3-4? Life lasts 15 seconds, Nastrond has a recast of 10 sec. Assuming that after Geirskoguling into Life, Nastron is available immediately, that means 2 Nastrons.

This is from the gamer escape write up:

Once you gain four eyes, using Geirskogul will activate the new mode, Life of the Dragon. While this status is active, Geirskogul is changed to a new ability called Nastrond, which is a 320-potency attack with the same range and shape as Geirskogul on a 10 second cooldown. Once in Life of the Dragon, the timer resets to 15 seconds and you have that long to possibly get in two Nastrond uses.

Sadly gamerscape is wrong in that one, well the one who wrote that up, idk if it was Avalonstar.

But if you check some YouTube videos about the MediaTour you'll see Life of the Dragon lasts as long as your Blood of the Dragon was before entering it, so let's say my Blood of the Dragon is at 29 seconds when I have 4 eyes and press Geirskogul, now I have 28-29 seconds of Life of the Dragon. Nastrond right away, another one in second 18, and last one in second 8.

Here you can see what I'm talking about, check the gauge bar.

Cool thanks, I hadn't seen that video yet.

So the tooltip says that life of the dragon will return to blood of the dragon when its duration ends. Say you get LotD at 29 seconds; I assume wheeling thrust and FnC do not extend this duration. I dont know what will happen when the timer hits zero now, unless that is the time to rebuff BoTD. If the timer is indeed the LotD duration it doesnt seem intuitive as to what will happen when that timer hits zero. You would assume that BotD is gone as well, yet the tool tip eludes to reverting to normal BotD

I have yet to see a video where LOTD ends. It either switches off to another scene or the player activates BOTD right when it is ending. On the one video the player says you are grated 15 seconds of BOTD when LOTD ends but he is using BOTD with 1 second left on LOTD in the video. Very curious, they may have changed and and not updated the tooltip
