I get the idea behind it, but IDC is our hardest hitting combo (180 -> 220 -> 500) so I'm more keen on maximizing its damage whenever I can.

Chaos thrust is the strongest move drg gets if you let it tick its full duration, you want b4b to be up when you do it and phlebotomize. But yea,

Is the highest dps rotation I can get on drg. Never checked reddit/OF, but I guess some semi-intelligent people go there.

Yes, but look at how you're using your total potency in the same span of time. 900 + 680. Assuming the mob doesn't bork you and ruin your Impulse Drive.

Whereas I do 500 + 680 + 680.

If they did, I didn't notice it. We must have wiped like 10 times on him. The bees... oh god, the bees!

There's a ledge you can stand on to the left, from the entrance, to avoid doom. Only works if you're ranged or healer though :c

But yeah he's pretty easy, of course if the people you are with aren't idiots.

Maybe I was the idiot, I dunno. The healer was up on the hill on the wall, and of course she aggroed the bees due to her cure bombs. So, while I'm AoEing the lot of them, they ignore me and climb the hill. About that time, I'd get Doom cast on me, but I still had to get to the damn bees. So, I'd try to climb the hill thing (which entailed of a lot of jumping and flailing and jumping some more) and by the time I'd finally get the bees off the healer, Doom went down to zero and I died. So, maybe it was my fault. Or maybe I should do a ranged attacker instead of my MNK.

You're not refreshing HT before your second TVF. Damage buffs are multiplicative. Not to mention, the sooner B4B is used, the sooner it can be used again.

My opening potency total in the same number of GCDs as yours...
170 + 269 + 328 + 822 + 526 + 246 + 328 + 542
279 + 189 + 253 (+ 417 + 404 + 189 + 253 + 417)

Potency Total = 3952 (bracketed is the rest of my rotations numbers)

Yours:
170 + 207 + 253 + 822 + 526 + 246 + 328 + 542
246 + 286 + 471

Potency Total = 3877

I THINK you might be able to fit HT in there again before BfB drops. If you can...

170 + 207 + 253 + 822 + 526 + 246 + 328 + 542
279 + 246 + 328 + 542

Total: 4489 to my 4369

If your GCD is low enough to squeeze out 9 abilities, your rotation wins. But Jumps (which should be used, no questions asked) probably take up just enough time to make that impossible.

Prioritize the removal of Doom, then focus the adds. If your healer pulled agro, they really need to get off their ledge because it's a pain to follow the bees up there. A lot of variables could've happened, meh.

It just reminds me of all the frustrating aspects of the game. Makes me wonder why I decided to re-subscribe. Sure, I wasn't playing anything, but at least I was enjoying myself.

I think you should check you addition there. Uhm, my opening came out to 3555, yours 3410. Unless you did something extra?

Edit: my hands are derping right now. I need to check my own addition

Anywho, it's nice to know that there are rotations other than mine to consider. I need to get to bed, gotta get up so early and then stay at work for 24 hours. Ugh.

Some nice contemplation.
