Smn Best In Slot 4.4

One of most frequently asked questions is: What is an example of a good opener?

While they form only fraction of total fight time, for Summoner the opener is very important to set the scene for all of our timings.

In this section we’ll cover:

• our preferred opener methods
• the reasoning & importance for various timings

• 4.4 DRG BiS List. Page 1 of 2 1 2 Last. Jump to page: Results 1 to 10 of 12. With that many ogcd I'm surprised SS can even be a thing on the DRG.
• Hey guys, today I want to share with you my actual Gear-Set for my tanks, that I tried to max out as best as I could with my casual possibilities. The best thing with this gear is that you can.

All of the openers are intended for single target & use Ifrit.

• Place Ifrit-Egi beside the boss. This will not aggro the boss.
• Prepull Ruin III (hardcast) @ roughly -2.5s. Adjust with ping in mind.
• Sic (pet stance) @ roughly -0.7s. Adjust with ping in mind.
• GCD 1 Egi Assault + Energy Drain + Tri-disaster
• GCD 2 Egi Assault II + Tincture
• GCD 3 Egi Assault + Aetherpact + Dreadwyrm Trance
• GCD 4 Egi Assault II + Lucid Dreaming + Enkindle
• GCD 5 Ruin III (instant) + Fester + Tri-disaster
• GCD 6 Ruin III (instant) + Deathflare + Summon Bahamut
• GCD 7 Ruin IV + Enkindle Bahamut + Fester
• GCD 8 Ruin IV
• GCD 9 Ruin III (hardcast)
• GCD 10 Ruin III (hardcast)
• GCD 11 Ruin IV + Enkindle Bahamut
• GCD 12 Ruin III (hardcast)
• GCD 13 Ruin IV + Energy Drain + Swiftcast
• GCD 14 Ruin III (instant) + Fester

The 3rd GCD DWT Opener is our standard 2 min alignment opener for Further Ruin & pet action consistency by providing a sufficient time buffer to ensure ghosts do not happen.

• Prepull Ruin III (hardcast) @ roughly -2.5s. Adjust with ping in mind.
• Sic (pet stance) @ roughly -0.7s. Adjust with ping in mind.

• GCD 2 Egi Assault II + Energy Drain + Aetherpact
• GCD 3 Ruin III (instant) + Tincture
• GCD 4 Egi Assault + Lucid Dreaming + Enkindle
• GCD 5 Egi Assault II + Fester
• GCD 6 Ruin III (instant) + Deathflare + Summon Bahamut
• GCD 7 Ruin IV + Enkindle Bahamut + Fester
• GCD 8 Ruin IV
• GCD 9 Ruin III (hardcast)
• GCD 10 Ruin III (hardcast)
• GCD 11 Ruin IV + Enkindle Bahamut
• GCD 12 Ruin III (hardcast)
• GCD 13 Ruin IV + Tri-disaster + Swiftcast
• GCD 14 Ruin III (instant) + Energy Drain + Fester

The 1st GCD DWT Opener is our go to when encounters favour Trance rushing (using them on cooldown).

Typically in the Rush timeline Tri-disaster is not clipped under buffs and is saved to be used during the DoT refresh towards the tail end of the Bahamut window of the opener.

Clipping TriD In The 120s Opener

Smn Best In Slot 4.4 Cu.

In the majority of situations when using the 2 minute cycle opener and timings, the Tri-disaster reset should be used to clip & snapshot our DoTs into the full suite of raid buffs not only for the tremendous initial gains in the opener but also to set a consistent timeline with our DoTs in relation to future raid buff timings, where every minute we will have a Tri-disaster under buffs.

Only in specific circumstances, such as e3s (Leviathan), should you consider otherwise in order to reduce potency losses with regards to downtime, especially if you can skip a hardcast DoT set.

As an example to show how important the damage difference is for DoTs, consider this before & after comparison from before 5.10 with no DoTs then the addition of Chain Stratagem, Battle Litany, Trick Attack (at 10%), Bole, Divination, Technical Finish, Dragon Sight, our own Devotion & a Grade 2 Tincture:

As of 5.30 Tri-disaster has 150p on hit damage, further emphasising the importance of catching what is effectively a 1050 potency OGCD under raid synergy which is Summoner’s highest total potency from a single action.

1st GCD: ED -> TriD (120s)

Having Energy Drain as the first weaved OGCD is to ensure suitable alignment down the line for future recast timings in particular those during Demi-Summons.

While there is a small chance of losing a DoT tick initially, the odds of this are low enough to not require Tri-disaster first.

3rd GCD: Aetherpact -> DWT (120s)

Aetherpact in the early weave slot is to ensure a proper 3rd GCD Devotion timing. This will keep Devotion on a timeline in concert with other 15s raid buffs such as Chain Stratagem, Technical Step & Trick Attack, while maintaining alignment that is best for most raid compositions.

4th GCD: Early Lucid Dreaming (Both)

Lucid Dreaming is not required for potency nor MP sake, however, having it as an early weave ensures the timing of the subsequent Enkindle to be a late weave for raid buffs as mentioned above.

If you find yourself prone to clipping on double weaves, you can omit the Lucid Dreaming & time the late Enkindle weave manually.

4th GCD: Late Enkindle (Both)

It is better to late weave Enkindle in the 4th GCD to ensure consistency with snapshotting specific raid buffs that may be cast late such as DNC’s Devilment & AST’s Divination.

6th GCD Summon Bahamut (Both)

The 6th GCD Summon Bahamut timing is to ensure pet actions resolve and do not ghost.

Ruin IV after the 1st Akh Morn (Both)

By replacing a Ruin III with Ruin IV this optimises a 100 potency base gain into raid buffs (300p vs 200p).

This does require a SwiftcastRuin III at the tail end of the Demi-Summon rotation. If in progression you find yourself needing to save Swiftcast for the first minute of an encouter, instead hardcast Ruin III & save the last Further Ruin stack for the last instant GCD in the Bahamut window.

If movement in an encounter requires an instant GCD to replace a hardcast at a different timing you can shuffle the GCDs to a degree, however, be mindful as to how this can impact Wyrmwave timings.

Also keep in mind that one big goal is to reduce unnecessary Ruin II casts. Consider what sequence lets you achieve that given the situation unfolding.

Due to the instability of the opener in practice and how prone it is to ghosting for players across all regions it has since been shelved.

Closing Thoughts

Hopefully these openers provide a framework to think about when certain approaches are the more sensible choice for dealing DPS.

As with any encounter, think about how your cooldowns play out as a fight progresses.

PvM summoner best gear question.
Hi,
I have been playing a basic summoner on non-ladder battle.net (europe) for a while.
And i think that some items i use are not the best possible items for this build.
There are 3 parts of my equipment which i think could get higher +skele / + skele masteries skils:
-weapon, is the King Leorics staff the best possible? and what would be the best possible mods for a necro weapon?
-head, i currently have a random +2 skill head, but i assume that a magic +3 summon circlet would give the highest +skills here.
-shield (shrunken head), this is the real question, what would give a better boost in skills for summoning then the standard +3 skill shield described in all guids.
It seems to me that a magic shield with +3 skele and +3 skele masteries and +3 summon skills should be possible. Is this shield possible, and if yes would some one have any clue on where to find it? and if it can be traded for, since thus far i have not seen any.
also are there other options ? which give more then the standard +3 skill shields.
This i found in some other thread

if i read this correctly then u take some gold (or yellow?) shrunken head and cube it with 6 perfect skulls and one then has a chance to get +3 skele, +3 skele masteries and +2 summon skills as max. Thus a +5 summon skill max.
