Desperius is... not a great source for combat info for XIV. His videos are riddled with basic mistakes (like what Ariane has pointed out). And it's not just this video. His rotation videos are also suspect at times.This has helped me decide on melding, but you need to find the numbers you need for sks, crit, det, dh from other places for each and every single job. Each job requires different melds when you wish to play optimally. i.e. WAR doesn't need DH only Crit.

At the end of the day it's really hitting the burst window with everything possible, and TEN isn't as important. That's why you have mitigation cooldowns. But you can do w/e you want really.
This is great informative video for 5.0 jobs



desperius is to good guide making as Ladas are to cars.
They work, but damn if you can't get better that isn't held together with vodka, tape, string, and determination.
As an "I'm new and wanna get the basic down" sure, desperius can work. But the instant you wanna improve even an iota? Move on to better sources. As soon as you start to read your tooltips and put 2 and 2 together? Move on to better resources.
