Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[mythicrose]

Well then I'm curious about what you dislike about the armor? Just curious.

Down to personal taste. The outfit just looks bland. I do like the heavy allagan set, though. I may glamor the christmas "mrs clause" outfit over the new stuff, though. Potentially with the white halloween pumpkin head.

Why do most decent DRG's I see posting use or advise people to use foresight over featherfoot as a cross class ability?
Personally I have seen far better results from featherfoot. Foresight is a very marginal benefit at best,
it is only really noticeable from a tank perspective when you have a large amount of incoming physical damage and the buff lasts for the full duration of incoming damage.
From a DRG perspective if you happen to pull hate or have something to OT ie Rook or Chirada etc. which dies fairly quick featherfoot gives much better benefits by making attacks have a decent chance to miss.

Featherfoot gives a 15% miss chance. This can end up mitigating a lot of damage...or absolutely nothing. IMO, that chance is not worth it. Foresight mitigates any physical damage by a set amount; no chance to deal with. Ultimately, though...they both suck

Personally, the first defensive CD I use is Keen Flurry (paired with Bloodbath). 80% chance to mitigate 27% (ish) of (parry-able) damage IS worth the risk (and the place I use it most on, T4 against Knights, I parry almost all Headspins with KF up).

He want dat cake cake cake

Because Featherfoot requires the RNG Gods to give a damn about me for 10 seconds, where as foresight is a guaranteed defense increase 100% of the time....

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner.

Dunno about the rest of you, but I don't like praying to the Twelve in the middle of a fight. Same goes for Keen Flurry.

Will there b an npc to convert them all or will our P tomes b converted automatically once we update to 2.2?

Yes, there WILL be an NPC to convert your Philo into Mytho (confirmed), but I don't know the conversion rates.

Keen Flurry is +80% on top of base parry chance ... I think it's reliable enough.

Does it add flat 80% parry, or is it *1.8?

That's something I've always been confused by in this game because the tooltips for everything are worded the same pretty much.

[Dunsford]

A bit late on this, but Foresight gives a flat defense boost which equates to about a 4% increase in damage mitigation for warriors. So if you featherfoot and dodge 1 single attack you make up far more than Foresight can ever do.
