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

Whereas I do 500 + 680 + 680.

I *** hate that Taurus in Qarn. I wanted to punch him in the face.
Right in the face.

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
By Vyrerus 2014-01-31 00:16:18
Ok, uhm, my intro came out to 4097, so yeah, check your addition again.
By Vyrerus 2014-01-31 00:20:01
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.

might not be but its funny lol
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
