Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

Ok after actually testing a bit more, FFXIVAPP KINDA parses dots. DoT information isn't actually displayed(at all, from my understanding), so it uses formulas and assume the dot runs its course and uses the damage formula with your current potency(which might be pulled from the initial hit) to create an average dot tick value then add that at set intervals starting from the moment it detects "Mob is affected by DoT". That's how it works with Aero and I assume Thunder and melee class dots too. However, since it doesn't have Bio or Miasma information, neither of these spells are parsed, meaning Arcanist damage parses are currently completely worthless unless using another parser that does have the values for these. On top of that, if you refresh a dot before it wears off, it doesn't detect that(because the message for the mob getting afflicted isn't applied again I assume), so it only counts one cast of the dot total, even if for example you refresh right after the last tick but before it wears off and get an entire 2nd full duration.

Maybe there's a better parser but this one is worthless when it comes to parsing Arcanist unless you're trying to figure out what's your Ruin+Carbuncle DPS.

Fuck yeah, swept all driver data off my system, then downloaded the beta drivers for my card and everything works perfectly now.

This game looks so much better when.. you can actually see effects lol

Hmm the pet does what's listed, 3secs recast 90potency is a 75potency "normal" cast of 2.5recast, or you can count it as a 90potency dot. Regardless, it does solid damage, not counting the special attacks which have too long cds to really matter. I pointed out before that I tested it and as far as I could tell, it does work exactly as if you were casting the spells, his 90 potency=your 90 potency. His stats are however generated on summon and he needs to be resummoned for stuff to update properly when you swap a weapon, but just looking at the numbers he certainly does slightly more than Ruin, which is how it should be, but casts a bit slower.

On the CNJ ACN stuff, I've lvled CNJ and ACN to 20, lvled CNJ to 24 last phase, and it's very obvious to me that ACN solos a fuckton faster. The fact that I kill mobs in ~4casts, they don't die on the 4th cast since it's dots, but that's all I need to cast to kill a mob, means it's naturally going to be faster than CNJ, regardless of what you're doing and how much dmg per cast you do. I don't cast Ruin much when soloing, only when I want to drop a mob quicker, I mostly just dot shit and run around while they die, pulling the next mobs in the mean time. Oh also you can grind forever as an ACN, as a CNJ you have to take mana breaks every now and then because the mana efficiency is poor and the only mana regen tool you get is at 34 or 36, and I don't even know if it'll be enough.
