I failed on my first attempt on the new striking dummy

[Marianno]

Q1: Can someone give me a basic understanding as to dummy dps? I apologize if this a stupid question but I would be greatful.

Q2: Why is BLM basic DPS higher than DRG and NIN? Am I interpreti g this correctly or no?

Q3: If my interpretation is correct then why does BLM need more DPS than melee?

I thought that melee hit harder than mages so I would think mages would need less dps since typically they deal less dmg than melee. Someone please help me understand the dps needed and such for BLM as it relates to DRG/NIN. Thanks in advance.

You just hit the dummy as hard as you can during 3 minutes. if you kill it, you passed the dps check. If not, you have work to do on your rotation

There is no mechanics at all on the dummies. So the BLM don't have to move at all, and they have more dps than DRGs if they don't have to move at all.
