Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[AugustusSB]

so i'm i90 now and a bit worried about my dps.

I've been trying to figure out a good reference point for me to test it on but i'm not sure what a good parser is right now with the 2.16 update.

Also, would parsing a dummy be the best thing to do, or maybe parsing on atomos?

[Warrlordd]

parse caduceus. or titan HM

Yeah the thing with Titan HM and Garuda for example is that they always damn jump before my power surged disemboweled blood for blood potioned full thrust.. and it drives me crazy.

can try cadeceus next week i guess as i have 1-4 cleared already.

Atomos is the most perfect thing to parse on besides dummies.

Unless the other groups decide to not stand on the platform at the start OR step off the platform if they finished before your group.....

My friend tells me that Cad has the most reliable parses in general (although Bard and SMN parses will be inflated if you are aiming to assess single target DPS, due to multi-dots).

What do you parse on Cadeceus? and which one do you use if you don't mind me asking?

[Warrlordd]

well SMN will have to move for slimes and such. I find it best to parse where there are realistic mechanics (but not necessarily enough to cause ahuge handicap)

My friend uses ACT and he says I parse between 360-375. He mentioned something about ACT being weird the past two weeks with my "time on target" as 362, but the encounter DPS as 375. Something slightly odd with when ACT is interpreting the start and end of the fight, since encounter DPS should virtually always be lower than time-on-target.

I wish your friend would post that breakdown of your cad turn 1 parse on reddit because I'd be interested in seeing it.
