As a Drg player I notice that no guide mentions that on your 2 min burst your Dragon's Sight and Battle Littany will come up in the Heaven's Thrust combo as Vorpal is coming up. Do not fall for the ABC rule finish your combo and burst off Disembowl. You will have a Wyrvenwind to dump in extra while insuring that Stardiver will be used in Littany's short timeframe after Heaven's Thrust. It might drift away from others raid buffs as most jobs hold a resource and are ready right when there buff comes up with drg your rotation dictates your burst. Try to pop all your cooldowns as they come up and feel how funky it is. Now wait for disembowl and try. It is your opener with a extra 3 ogcd's (Wyrvenwind, Nastrond and Stardiver) I blow off the wyvernwind with my Littany as the 2nd weave followed up with nastrond used after the Raiden's Thrust and finishing off by weaving in Lifesurge+Spineshatter dive for Heaven's Thrust to make sure I gap close into my biggest hit to Stardiver, Littany's effect will wear off just after stardiver and into the fang and claw. Hope this helps someone what was having a hard time squeezing 2 min buff as they roll up. It makes your rotation janky and you miss out on key abilities if you just full send it when they are up unless you have a great amount of skill speed that is also a no no.
Thank you for this, Id been gone from the game for so long that I only remembered my gcds and couldn’t for the life of me figure out why my gauge wasn’t filling, lollo;;
I really don't understand how macros work in this game. Does it need to have multiple lines of the same thing in order to work?? what does /merror off or even mean? none of it makes sense.
means mouse over, it will target who ever your mouse is hovering over in the party list or on the field. merror off simply makes it so if you try to use to macro when you cant that you dont get annoying error sound. the multiple lines is because macros can only be executed on frames from your monitor so having as many lines as possible will make it more likely to get used when you press it
Was hoping for a more in depth guide of further into the rotation than just the opener. This is decent companion info to the balance guide, but doesn't seem anything additional? Like a 30 second, 1 minute, or 2 minute example would have been good
It’s not meant to be additive, it’s a retelling of the basic guide in a visual and auditory way, instead of plain text, to help people learn who learn better through this format. If you wish to learn more in-depth then I do believe we have an advanced text guide available.
Of course! You'll naturally have to do a few quests of MSQ but you should have plenty of time before the next raid releases sometime end may / early june.
Juliacare, I see that you're also playing on console and and I'm one of those having troubles with my button mappings and hotkeys. Can you make a video about this for Dragoons?
the background footage is not mine, it has been given to me by the dragoon theorycrafters in the balance. I recommend joining the discord and asking about it there.
Hello so i understood the Opener part which im assuming is so that it gets all your BUFFS up and on cooldowns. Now the part I didn't understand was the ROTATION. Am I repeating GROUP A until my cooldowns are up again. If so once my cooldowns are up am i repeating my OPENER once more ?
The rotation only works at level 90 but once you hit 90, you repeat the 10 gcd cycle endlessly and keep ogcds on cooldown alongside. Here is the levelling guide to help you www.thebalanceffxiv.com/jobs/melee/dragoon/leveling-guide/
@@unifiedmind sounds like a plan. This video is a guide for once you hit level 90 mostly. You can still learn the basic idea of dragoon from it though. Good luck either way!
Hi, sprout here. So the Dragon gauge is only accessible to you in Stormblood? I am level 77 Dragoon in heavensward and I finished the level 60 Job Quest and I still have no gauge. The in-game text says I need to access the stormblood and lvl70 job quest
the footage in the video is from Stella in the balance, the thumbnail and animation is made by an artist called saki. I don’t know what glams they used
Hello so after the opener we just cycle our buffs right? and then after that cycle we use life surge Geirskogul+ nastrond to take advantage of the lance surge buff right? And then after that until life surge+ dragon sight comes back on cd save the both life surges for the standard opener again right?
Haha I always laugh at how efficient y'all try to be. Sprinting at the beginning, that's just trying hard. I mean when a rotation is based off how close you are to your nearest internet service provider is a tad much. Lmao
As per patch 6.3, life surge cooldown is now 40s. This should not affect your rotation.
Do you have a recommended cross hotbar setup? I've been struggling to find any.

Your thumbnails make me click the videos everytime I always enjoy watching your content
Those combos can seem overwhelming, but in-game your Action/Ability icons highlight the next one you’re suppose to click on.

I played way back in 2014, i want to get back into it but want to jump into the current action. Is that possible?

i wish theyd fold the comboing abilities into one ability slot
They’re reworking the job in Dawntrail. So perhaps thats one of the things they do.

@@Juliacare so ma I just spamming this until I get to 90 to the 10 gcd cycle. Sorry to bother you I’m trying to learn this and put it together.

It probably unlocks after that 70 job quest. If not then try asking for help in the drg channels in the balance discord server.
Why is Life Surge used for Fang and Claw instead of Heavens Thrust which has more potency?
It’s only used on fang in the opener to get it on cooldown earlier. All other uses you aim to use on Heavens. This is mentioned in the video.
Hey! Can you share your glam please?
the footage in the video is from Stella in the balance, the thumbnail and animation is made by an artist called saki. I don’t know what glams they used
The one guy after 6.4 who still can't pronounce "Coerthas" and derivate words right after hearing it so much for being a DRG.

yep thats right
@@Juliacare oh okies I think im arranging my cool downs wrong! Im barely making 15 sec on training dummy with no food and potions ;w;
or idk what im doing well maybe its cuz im not penta melded? XD
it has nothing to do with pentamelds. Maybe with a weird recast speed. Feel free to ask in the DRG channels in the balance discord for more help
@@Juliacare oh yeah im around 2.46 recast!
