Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Dervy]

Ran it at 466 Accuracy using Button Mushroom Sautes to reach 472 accuracy, less overall stat weight score than the 476 set which was using Buttons in Blanket. Not even worth it.

As for 463,

Score without food: 692.053
Score with Deviled Eggs HQ (472 accuracy): 695.01172
Score with Buttons in Blankets HQ: 698.70036

Weapon: Allagan Spear
Head: Wyrm's Armet
Chest: Wyrm's Mail
Gloves: Allagan Gauntlets of Maiming
Waist: Hero's Belt of Maiming
Legs: Allagan Trousers of Maiming
Boots: Allagan Sollerets of maiming
Necklace: Allagan Choker of Striking
Bracelet: Hero's Bracelet of Slaying
Earrings: Tremor Earrings of Striking
Ring1: Allagan Ring of Striking
Ring2: Allagan Ring of Maiming

Accuracy: 463
Critical Hit Rate: 61
Skill Speed: 43
Determination: 159

The issue with this set, is to boost it so 472, you'll have to use HQ deviled eggs.

But yours says 463 accuracy, while the other is 465

The set has 465 accuracy, indeed. I was meant to say "aiming" for 463 accuracy. Was typing this post whilst raiding, not a good idea ahaha! That's also why it took me forever to post it >_<

Alrighty, I'll update the main post with this list and the new stat weights in a bit, unless there are any serious objections

The number in parentheses is the actual accuracy from all gear/food/base combined, the first number 463 is what I set my script to optimize for. It couldn't seem to find a maximum DPS weight @ exactly 463 so it used the closest step up which was 465 in this case.

Just a quick edit for the 465 Accuracy set:

Score with Deviled Eggs HQ (472 accuracy): 695.01172
Score with Buttons in Blankets HQ: 698.70036

Added it to my post as well.

The set with 475 accuracy, using Buttons in Blankets is still highest DPS hitting that 472 accuracy cap, oddly enough.

I guess it's because of the new weights of Determination, A whole 0.1 was added. That's a big difference imo.

Likely, but that would only apply to T5, and even then only on the adds which you'd have maybe a 0.1% miss chance on around 460 accuracy. Every other encounter in the game would benefit from lower native accuracy on gear. Then you can just use HQ eggs to hit the cap on Turn 5 and suffer an almost non-existent dps loss compared to 472+buttons. Alternatively you could just use multiple sets of gear, but that'd get a bit nuts.

It could also be possible that the very low miss % on adds isn't even worth caring about compared to everything else (Twintania herself included). I didn't miss Twintania at all at 459 accuracy, and had somewhere between a 0.1-0.7% chance to miss the adds, which upon reflection I don't think really matters at all. Perhaps I'll try parsing again tomorrow night with low 460's for accuracy and see what happens. It's possible that's the cap, and the native accuracy on gear could be in the 450's for the rest of the encounters in the game.

[Dervy]

I have the same mindset. Having a 0.7% miss rate, once a week, for 5 minutes, doesn't really warrant us to completely switch out side. However, it's obvious that the Accuracy Cap is closer to around 460-465. 463, could, very possibly, be the Accuracy Cap (if I remember correctly, someone parsed 0 misses with 463 a few pages back)

Also, the accuracy cap for Turn 6+ will most probably be in the 470-480+ region. I think it'll be safest if we save up for a mid-470 BiS to prepare for 2.2's accuracy cap, then work back downwards again.


Can't wait for your parses tomorrow with low 460 accuracy! Thanks for your work.

Just seems like the hygeia have the highest acc requirements @ over 470, everything else is between 460-470.

I dont know how other groups deal with the snakes but in my group we just let the smn bane DoT the first 2 down to about 60%, then blm LB2 when all gathered, after that will be 2 left at around 30% and 2 stacks with smn DoTs on then the blm double flare to finish them off, I normally use dragonfire dive here also but thats the only time im hitting hygeia really, so the acc requirement for them using this sort of set up isn't important to me.

Not doing coil until Thursday this week but will parse @ 463 and post results again.
