I don't believe you
Looking at my learning parses, I was 350-360-ish during add phase wipes early on and 370-380 once we got used to P2 and had early wipes going into P3; I think now I sit at 400+ during adds since I don't really lose any damage here barring downtime at the start of the phase and during the transition. As for having to manually cast the DoTs, that is more of an MP drain but will be a DPS increase vs Bane use due to gaining a Fester back. Even with one set of DoTs being halved.
Granted, it's just approximations based off of totalHP of the phase and time spent in it but we were doing the ~250k damage of the phase in 130-135s so 1900-1850 raid DPS still so around a 20-30 DPS loss per person on average during the phase?

Oh, we've been saving LB the entire time lol
Maybe we should use it haha. It's only LB2 at that point.
Watch this Asami: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5zS4__Zr90
DPS doesn't change much from end of add phase and end of boss. Infact it drops for a couple due to the movement from nerve gas, exactly what I was mentioning. BLM goes from 400 during add phase to 380 during final phase.
I can watch it when I'm not at work. It won't answer my question that you quoted though

No weapon drop increase.
......eeeeegh..
Welp, time to sit on an incomplete collection until that drop rate is adjusted.

The rest were probably just more on the ball. We didn't record separate DPS meters to know and I can't see anything on the recorded stream.
Korra, it would be awesome if you added DPS meter to your screen & stream so I can see where we dip.
Probably not the best idea...
Convince Korra he needs a Ramuh pony.
The entire FC will have Ramuh axes within a week.
Oh, it'll happen, sooner or later. XD
There's plenty of videos online and streams with DPS meters and nothing has happened to them. Our stream only normally has like 30 people watching.
I think you just don't grief or admit in game and you're fine. Out of sight out of mind. SE only cares due to the griefing. And the only person griefing the people in our static is me, and I'm on PS4 so they can't put that on me
Let's get the group together today and do it
I was going to watch that later. Someone or a bunch of people must have something drastically different. It was a big difference and I find it hard to believe that people were just on the ball for that one and it never looked like that again during any other attempt before or after.
Taking the group into T9 tonight actually. Besides, getting people to do Ramuh is kinda difficult. It's probably one of the least well received Primal fights.
Like Galensempai said, thats not a good idea. We could do a single run tonight and i can keep a close eye on the dps and see where it dips
Oh dear...

Forked Lightning RNG might be involved at beginning when people dont feel comfortable with fight and they go across the map to release it and those 5-8 secs they are not doing anything
Yeah we know when it dips. The issue isn't where it dips, it's the overall. Take a random number, 360 to 330, sure, natural dip during that phase transition and losing 30 DPS. The issue is the fact we are only at 360 in the first place. And I want to confirm that's the case, that our overall is bad, not just the dip.
Looking at that DPS meter in the video is illuminating.
Okay, for awhile I've been kinda fantasizing about the developers introducing new stats in the expansion, just to make things more interesting. For example, reverse-determination, (Fortitude?) as a defensive stat, or similarly, altering how current stats like skill speed and parry operate.
Question is, is anything like this at all likely, or am I just torturing myself unnecessarily?

We never really got a good where we were in the first place though. When we wanted to test first phase DPS by itself, we screwed that up royally. The other issue could be that we are dipping too much once add phase starts. It's a shame we couldn't get a good parse at the end there because I think we are all definitely 100% comfortable in phase 1 so it probably would have been a better jumping off point than add phase where we really don't have it down.
You stealth edited in my thought anyway, nevermind.
Yes.
What's HPS?
.....Yes to which part, YES TO WHICH PART!?!?! D:

the only stat that matters in this game
Heals per second.
That's not an issue for us in T11, except when Korra forgot to turn off cleric stance for the entire add phase.
Heals per second is a generally useless metric in just about any game IMO.

I can't stream with a DPS meter. We're an official partner channel that makes money and are an official media outlet where Square Enix is a game publisher that monitors our coverage. This is something that could turn into more than a ban from the game.
I can make another account that I won't care what happens to it but can't be on the official GT channel. Just like we're not allowed to stream emulated games or unofficial mods like Project M.

I highly doubt it's a big deal. Things will click randomly, we will move on, no one will care about DPS until the next problem, repeat.
I'm more excited to make my grand ninja debut.
PSA: When switching to a new class at endgame, do not be surprised if your initial numbers are somehow less than ideal. There is of course a learning-up period, and it varies from player to player.
Mind you, this statement should be pretty darn obvious, but you'd be surprised how many people need to be reminded of this.

I'm not sure if "grand" should be the word used :3c
This is what I was referring to with my previous post.
Just gotta beat movement handicapped BLM numbers. Should be a cinch.
Pretty sure poison pots tick while moving.
I mean, 400+ is still your goal there then. Depending on the learning curve for NIN, probably easier to just learn the movement patterns better. Makoto sits at ~370-380 even with bad tethers and on the Sphere for DPS; most reported caster numbers I've seen for the whole fight are still 410-420+ pre-weapon.
Tank on sphere can handle repelling cannon timing so people always have time to be on it.
