this.

raging strikes. longest dots cast first> shortest dots cast last. use the dot extender from your caster pet. now you can do other crap for 30 seconds while you have 4 (if you don't have thunder YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG) or more dots running at +20%. should actually give you enough time to fester at least once with +20% as well.

can summoner use the 20% dmg buff from 34 lancer too? i know bards can, and they stack for +40% if used together. (ideally better to use every 60s to go with the dot extending pet ability imo)

as for who kills mobs the fastest while leveling - ifrit egi + dps chocobo + 3 dots + fester = nearly instantly dead mob. i've not seen anything kill the world trash as fast as i can, even those also using a dps chocobo.
