How to Dragoon per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[Shamox]

Yeah just switch sam now cuz it's definitely not gonna change.

Remember ninja when it came out?

[Erys]

Btw remember double weaving geirskogul into nastrond for the impossible 4 Nastronds per LotD?
You can double weave them with minimal to 0 delay. If only we could raise BotD to 31 seconds xP
Try it for the lulz. Had lots of fun in susano today, cool fight to push LotD.

"Would you even be able to bring something like Dragon Sight into SSS? Been awhile since I poked one of those things."

Yea technically you can, you can have your companion out during SSS, though not sure if the companion would affect your final numbers

Just put him in passive stance, so he doesn't attack the dummy

People saying "rip DRG" based on a parse that lasted like ... 40s ? It's not even a parse, you don't even enter LotD

I've been noticing that when coming out of LOTD phase you can sneak in an extra gerisokgul but ONLY when looking out how many eye stacks you have if you have two or more hold it or you will be waiting 11 second or so before entering LOTD if you have one stack you can squeeze in one without having to wait when you hit max eye stacks

I do follow one simple rule : if geirskogul will pop up more than 9s after your 4th jump, hold it. That being said, i can squeeze 2 geirskogul in my rotation before entering LotD with a thrid one. After that, it line up nicely : 1 free geirskogul, 1 for entering LotD (with it always going off CD as I hit 4th Gaze and 30s on BotD)

I don't know if it's been talked about much, but what's the recommended course of action for those with high ping rates as far as double weaving goes? I have characters on NA and EU servers and while the EU ping is slightly better for me, I've noticed periods of serious eating into the GCD when double weaving.

I don't know, on dummies I just pop Geirkogul on cd and it lines perfectly with blood for blood + -2 or 3 seconds. Same for fights with lots of uptime I guess. You just end up delaying LotD activation to do it under b4b but the way you do it you just miss B4B and still get the same amount of eyes right?
For fights when you know there's a break sure this is the way to go. But if it's the boss is going to be there for a while I see no reason not to use that geirksogul and then use Geirskogul+2Nastronds under blood for blood.

So has anyone figured out a rotation that leads up LoTDall the way to when it wears off? curious to see what everyone has come up with so far
