Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[mythicrose]

Speaking of turn 8, it's rather sickening how much dps my group's summoners are doing. Neither have above the allagan book but hitting 400 dps. The monk and I are more geared. He's around 377 dps and I'm around 350 dps. I do run out for mines and brain jack.

Is 400 for the entire fight? that seems really inflated for allagan book smn. Do you have 2 bards with perma foe up lol? 350 for drg, 380 for monk seem like ok numbers for a first time clear with i100 weapons.

We have only one bard. He does use foe req, but not very long. I don't parse the fight. But those that do in the group all have very similiar figures using ACT for us all. We've not cleared it yet, but getting pretty close. Outside of food buffs, I don't believe any of us have used other consumables to boost dps. I'm just amazed at how high their dps is, that's all. I could probably squeeze out a little more if I didn't chase down mines or deal with brain jack, but I doubt I'd be matching the summoners. Just curious if other groups are noticing the same thing.

There is that thing about dots not being 100% accurate.. I have both SMN and DRG, and while DRG def feels like I'm doing more damage, things just melt for my SMN. It's a tough call to be honest.

Meh I got my Liberator and my det is goin so much downhill Im not entirely convinced that weapon damage is really the way to go to do more damage, with ilvl95 weapon I was hittin like 1630 full thrust and now its more about 1550 big maximum ...

Not really, with X pot on it can hit that hard.

Sometimes you just get luckier with crits than others.

Damage will go up once you upgrade it to i110.

7 det can't compare to 5 str and 4 weapon damage.

Exactly. What Sygmaelle is experiencing, is RNGesus. 1 WD = approx 29 DET.

I hate the RNG. Most of the time my buffed FT (no X-pot) is between 1330 and 1400. I cry everytime it goes under 1300...had it happen a bunch last night too

Get my Weathered Liberator this week and hopefully will get my boots and an accessory from T6/7 this week too...watch more healer gear drops (our heals are our most-geared people too...so lucky with Coil2 loots)

We started T8 last night, kept getting to the second Brainjack before wiping (we had the Dread pop around the same time, which is what's probably causing the wipes. We're changing that this week)
