Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

I'll ask him if he'll allow me to link the vid from his stream For now, I'll link the screenshot I took from my laptop after our attempt. It has the RainbowMage mini parse on his stream in it. t12 DRG dps from stream.

Are you sure that's unmerged? Time says 01:36 on the top.

I do believe that number's possible if you guys had a long-ass fight and it ended right before second dodge phase, though. Would still probably need to sustain 630~ or so the entirety of your uptime to sustain that with the downtime (time waiting for Bennus to spawn, waiting for Phoenix to become mortal, dodge phase's 20s or so of standing around), which sounds hard without a NIN, though I could see the AoE/multi-DoTing portion slightly making up for that.

As far as I know, yes it's unmerged. Not entirely sure how it works since I play on a PS4, but on his stream the time would reset for downtime in t12. I'll see if I can link his stream so you can have a better understanding xD Yes, it ended before the second dodge phase.

I think I see what's up with the time. I think his encounter timer is set too low, most likely the default 6 seconds.

So I think what happened is his ACT started a new encounter after the Dodge Phase, and that lasted 1:36, that would explain a few of the very wide ranging numbers there, such as the 328 BLM.

Gotta have zero culling for a fight to be unmerged, which is the only accurate and fair way to judge DPS. Not only will merging sometimes mess up both DPS and encDPS just by weirdo merging, it literally doesn't count downtime after it gets culled as part of the fight and then you'll have highly inflated numbers.

Not saying that's definitely what's happening here but that's just how it works when culling happens. One duration from start to finish, taking in all the downtime as part of your DPS, the only way to keep it fair group to group.
