Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Manticzeus]

Potions interrupt your combo's, so that wouldn't work. You would have to use it before ID. Unless they ninja-hotfixed this within the last few days?

EDIT: You're my twin... vwut

EDIT2: Gone back a page and reread it. If that is the case, it's a bug and I wouldn't use it.

Lol i know right, whats funnier is me and you keep posting on the same things on reddit too!

I havent tried with any other classes, just dragoon, but are you sure its not intended?

Did a few hits on lv50 dummies at whitebrim.

323-347 CT
41-46 dot

observed NQ STR Megapot buffed CTs (including pot>CT)
358, 381
41?-50 dot

I'm surprised it works, underwhelmed at how little it adds, and baffled at SE's horrible netcode. Carry on.

Snip

Confirming once again.

Pre Str pot on dummies
CT hitting for 365-400 (100 tests)
45-51 dot

Post Str pot on dummies (NQ Hi-Strength Potions, 2 NQ mega)
CT hitting for 405-417, 429 (8 tests)
48-53 dot, 51-58(mega)

The crits are much more noticable, Before CT was critting for 554-587 and after it was hitting over 620

Just tested it on my WAR. Used a HQ Potent Poisoning Potion during Storms Block combo. Interrupted

Potions don't actually interrupt combos, they just break the GUI for it, follow it up and you'll notice its fine. Its most noticeable if you pop disembowel > potion > chaos, you still land the dot proving it works.

Tested through maaaany turn 4 dreadnaughts.

Only works if you perform next GCD as soon as possible. If you wait even slightly it will "properly" interrupt. Mashing also didn't seem to work for WAR combos, and I don't want to blow more money testing for if it works on things besides Chaos Thrust.

It's clearly unintentional.

Oh lame , well I guess I need a new potion rotation. I guess after CT is the best place to use it.

[Dervy]

I usually use it after PL for my rotation.

Hi Guys, recently started to play as a DRG and my combo is slightly different from the one mentioned in the beginning of this topic.

Mine goes like: HT-Ph-ID-Dis-CT instead of HT-ID-Dis-CT-Ph

Are there any major impact in-terms of DPS wise?

As for Fracture, is it wise for me to include it in my rotation? If yes, where?

Thanks in advance

You lose the Dis buff to the Ph hit and, personally, I find the other timing easier - always slipping a HT or Ph in between the combo chains. Movement of the Ph won't drop you like 40 dps or anything, just keep your HT and Ph up with what is most comfortable.
