FFXIV [6.1] UWU Clear DRG POV (98 Parse)

This was my third clear with my static and I honestly was surprised with the parse I got so I decided I wanted to upload this for myself and for those who wanted to get an idea of how DRG plays in this fight :) I've made a couple of mistakes so you shouldn't use this as a basis of how to optimize for the fight itself but I had fun learning and clearing the fight so I wanted to share this moment.

Currently progging the fight (we've cleared titan a few times so far) and this really helped get the kinks out of my rotation :D just wanted to drop a like, a comment, and a thank you.

[@KarbonHD]

I'm glad I was able to help in some way and good luck with the progs I believe you can clear it soon

Thank you so much for this video our static is takin on ucob next!!! :D

[@diegosalazar793]

Awesome run :0 Nice parse too. Btw, i was trying to get a high parse as well and I have some questions with things that i'm not sure if it's a potency gain. At the opener, it wouldn't be better to use geirskogul at the begining since there is 30sec until the feathers? And Life Surge with Sonic Thrust instead of Full Thrust for adds. At least that says The Balance. I noticed that we can have 1 eye at the end of garuda's phase if you use high jump on the spiny (to be able to do that, you have to use HJ after disembowel and pot after true thrust). The only problem would be that HJ will not be under Lance Charge. This could vary a little bit depending on kill times but I don't now if thid would be better to continue doing this or follow your pov with your LotD managament

[@KarbonHD]

Tyty! I was told by someone in the comments to use geirskogul at the start instead of what I did but I'm not 100% sure if its more optimial. It makes sense why it would be but when I was learning this fight I was following the rotation of the top 1 dragoon for the fight in fflogs which they didn't do. I could be wrong tho. All I can suggest is follow their rotation over mine. I made some minor mistakes throughout the fight so I wouldn't say follow my pov and just use your best judgment. Sorry if I couldn't answer your questions I'm not too knowledgeable about optimizing with dragoon since I main reaper.

I keep revisiting this video to help with mechs praying for a clear sometime soon 🙏

[@RobertoM2011]

Great clear! I'm still not too confident staying near Landslide that kb gave me PTSD. What was that opener you did btw? It lined you up for almost the whole fight !

[@KarbonHD]

Haha Landslides sometimes still give me PTSD if im greeding to hard but a general rule of thumb is to watch for the castbar to finish before moving into it and you should be fine. I've recently changed some stuff in my rotation to optimize better for the fight but the core rotation is still the same. By delaying my buffs in my opener in Garuda, it allows me to use my aoe skills under buff. Another example, by delaying a gcd in ultima, it allows me to use life surge off cooldown instead of waiting to use it on full thrust which would be an overall dps loss. Doing these little optimizations can help you deal more damage and get better parses but isnt required to clear the fight, I just enjoy doing it :)

[@RobertoM2011]

@@KarbonHD ahh I see yeah I'm def getting more used to the Landslides but it's tough when your trying not to die pull 1 in a clear party you know 🙃 and ok so the rotation is essentially the same just popping stuff a bit later I like it! Yeah it was really good stuff because DS and Litany would fall of when they became untargetable but was up the whole time when you did and it lined up perfectly when it they came back. Great job

[@christopherladka2463]

What gearset are you using if you dont mind me asking? I know people say to use SHB relic weapon.

[@KarbonHD]

I'm using the gearset that is listed in the The Balance discord i.imgur.com/cPHEzRb.png . The most important gear that affects your stats is the SHB relic weapon but if you don't have it I wouldn't say it's worth grinding for since the difference in dps is rather small and not worth the effort. A lot of the gear listed are interchangable so it doesn't really require much grinding but just using current bis is fine too.

[@Fridaaxd]

Great clear video, thank you! But I would maybe take it down as you're not obscuring your name and you're using 3rd party addons (chat bubbles, party list, ACT, UI etc) :P

[@andrewcheung406]

good job mein sohn

[@KarbonHD]

all thanks to meine mutter :)

[@icebarrage_iwc]

coulda been a 99 or a 100 if you opened with geirskogul on start. looks like you could've gotten it back entirely by the point at which you used it.

[@KarbonHD]

I haven't thought of that oh well I doubt I wouldve gotten a 100 because i messed up some of my rotation throughout the fight but if I ever step foot in UWU again I'll remember to do this

[@icebarrage_iwc]

@@KarbonHD yeah I've been watching some drg pov. Seems like they all do this.

[@Cherryblossoms110]

1:48 really speaks volumes that you can get 98 parse without greeding like a dumbass there like literally everybody in PF seems to enjoy doing

[@zylpher]

ngl from what i've seen (never done one) uwu looks to be the easiest one? like tea and ucob look like actual pain lmao

[@voca6175]

you're right mate lots of forums and people have been saying the same, i myself notice it, sometimes you'd even realize uwu is not even a difficult ultimate as you clear the other 4 due to uwu having the same mechanics over and over

NICE ZOOM HACKS
