Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

What are the accuracy caps for DRG in T5 and Levi EX?

Sorry, probably have been asked million times, but google seemed to give me lots of different answers.

You need 458 for Both Leviathan and T5.
Thats only for flank and behind though.
For the front you need to be in the high 470 but it's really not necessary.

I need help in figuring out what to get next/aim for with my dragoon all this skill speed is killing me/my tp lol. This is my alt toon and I dont see myself getting into new coil much except for random PFs. I think soon my static might want to use my dragoon for T8 and such, but not certain yet..

What are some good sets I can go for? Is melded crafted gear my only choice now or do I sacrifice secondaries for others?

I guess my biggest step is possibly the wave harpoon, but man I been farming it and I got everything except that lol!

Also my acc is borderline atm I mean I have enough, but anymore swapping I lost a lot unless I go back to the myth helm and/or relic.

If all you need is accuracy for turn 8, you could try using deviled eggs or getting the ribbon of slaying from Thornmarch EX. However I can't really recommend using an alt for T8, wouldn't you miss out on gear for your main character in that case (assuming you didnt get all your drops already)? Clearing t8 with two tanks isnt TOO hard assuming your DPS and offtank are on the ball for damage.

Got my penta-melded tassets and I'm a happy camper. My chest is a mess though. Got 3 savage aim IVs and a savage aim III. Should have melded a savage might IV first. Now I gotta shell out a few hundred thousand gil to get that last materia on D:

Ariyala's gear set calculator now includes a BiS solver, massive props to Ariyala Ta'nya it seems really well done and easy to use.

For dragoon there seems to be a few differences however for the 493acc BiS list compared to the one on the front page. It may be because of the extra food used but if anyone with a working solver can help work out the definitive set it would be much appreciated as a goal to work towards

[Dervy]

I'll go check Ariyala see if it's solver is working or not. I have solvers for all DPS jobs so...

EDIT: Lol, it's not good. I'd not use it.

Shame, what exactly is wrong with it?

Been playing with it for abit and I can't find anything wrong with it. It matches the BiS list on the front page exactly at different accuracies when food is not included and the front page BiS list used buttons.

The only time it is different that I have seen so far for dragoon is when the front page BiS uses accuracy food and food is also enabled on Ariyala's gear solver which then selects Apkallu Omelettes HQ instead of Deviled eggs HQ, such as 476 accuracy and 493 accuracy.

EDIT:
Ariyala's gear solver set weight for dragoon @ 493 accuracy = 852.329
BiS list on front page set weight for dragoon @ 493 accuracy = 852.102

So Ariyala's set scores slightly higher.

With the FFXIV.Ariyala set, it gives you a total accuracy of: 483. Let's see if the Alpaku Food Buff is actually correct.

483/100=4.83*2 = 9.66 + 483 = 492.66

That isn't 493 accuracy.

It's not good because it doesn't calculate food buffs properly. I'm going to contact the maker of ffxiv.ariyala to fix his food.

One thing I noticed with the website overall is that Accuracy is sometimes...weird; same gearset (in-game and on that website) giving two different accuracies (usually it has 1 more point over what is in-game). Wonder if this is a side-effect of that error
