Sigurd's Descendants: The Art of Dragon Slaying.
I heard in passing that DRG could get 3-hit with Trish and still maintain reasonable ACC. Does this seem like a true statement? If so, what would it look like compared to 4 hit?
When you say 3-hit do you mean WS+2 swings or WS+3 swings?
ws+2swings+jump? From my knowledge and simply looking at the gear you cannot 2 hit + ws on drg with any weapon.
I don't know, it is coming via 3rd party source so the veracity is already highly in question.
For thought experiment, let's say WS + 2 hit.
I also am curious what a Trish WS + 3 hit set looks like since I am just getting back into DRG after a very long time as well.

Surprised at the lack of any augmented Valorous pieces. Do you have any idea roughly how much ACC that clocks in at?

Even with the HQ belt you aren't capping equipment haste (23%). (All that means is you need Master and capped Magic Haste before that set is viable.)
Does Brutal Earring really beat Moonshade?
Or swap Sulevia's Cuisses with Valorous (maybe STP to ease up your Stardiver set).
Completely forgot about Moonshade for some reason.
You don't need capped gear haste on DRG. With Boosted Wyvern, Hasso and capped magic haste, you only need 17%.
Also, that set is by no means optimized. Just something viable. As for acc, it's looking like 1304 with Sublime Sushi and Hasso included. And CP Gifts.

Dumb question but it's been a LONG time. Could someone give a tl;dr about the changes to wyvern that make it so relevant?

Was just stating that for people that pick up the job. (I know a lot of ppl in big linkshells get the Aeonic then CP it.)
At capped wyvern level:
ATT+20%
DEF+20%
Haste +10%
DA+15%
ATT+40
DEF+40
ATT+20%

After you summon the Wyvern it can level up and with each level your gift give the Dragoon 2 JA haste and 3 DA. Meriting Spirit Link (and using it) will give the Wyvern max level without the need to gain experience and with that the max boost of 10JA haste and 15DA.
Edit: and all the other stuff...
Quote:
As a wyvern’s level rises, the dragoon’s physical attack and defense will increase, and the player will also receive a haste effect.
Physical attack and defense will increase by 4% for each wyvern level up to a cap of 20%, and the haste effect will increase by 2% per level up to a cap of 10%.
* These benefits are only conferred while the player’s wyvern is active. If the wyvern falls in battle or is dismissed, the benefits are lost.
Owing to this adjustment, the physical attack and defense bonus conferred by the Spirit Surge ability will be changed to 25%.
The Strafe job trait, originally obtainable via merit points, will now be earned by leveling up. The trait is first acquired at level 20, with the effect increasing in stages at levels 40, 60, and 80.
Owing to this adjustment, the Merit Group 2 category “Strafe” will be renamed to “Strafe effect”
Strafe effect: From Increase accuracy by 5 to Increase accuracy by 10.
The amount of time required for a breath to activate will be decreased from three seconds to one second.

You also get a DA (or is it OAT?) effect based on wyvern level via gifts.
Oh wow holy crap. Okay, thanks guys!
Ok all big favor please. I am gearing dragon right now around Trishula but I do not have access to ambuscade gear due to Flamma not being on the voucher after all that hype that it would be. Looking for tp and stardiver sets minus ambuscade. Not sure if that would be abjuration gear or not. Please help.

Flamma is on voucher (Gallantry). It is what I am currently working on.
I just bought feet voucher and it is not on there.
Yeah, Vouchers are for the Salvage sets only
Oh wow did they change the description?
Sub any Flamma pieces with Valorous for TP set and augment it with ACC and DA, if you need STP for your intended xhit build do STP.
You've got a few options still.
Sulevia head+1 has 8 STP
Augmented Valorous
Missmatched Accessories/Grips as needed/available.
67 in TP, 48 in WS as /sam should be enough to 4-hit with Trishula.

When you say meriting Spirit Link, do you mean Empathy? so with 5/5 Empathy, using spirit link once effectively gives us capped wyvern boosts?
Yup.
So now that I'm screwing around with DRG again it is incredibly fun, but a question I and others in LS were thinking was this: At capped attack speed are jumps still worth using?
I'm leaning yes, because of the insane TP return and free damage, but it is an interesting question.

With the TP Bonus gear they are. Lots of free TP to make up for the 2s attack round delay.
I try to game it so that jumping leaves me with over 1000 TP, reducing the delay to one second.
Braden, I have taken code that is working in my DNC lua to choose the correct macro book/page on job change, but I can't get it to work in your intermediate DRG lua that I am using.
This is the code, and then up top I put:
These appear to be the only things in the other lua that I can see which would impact itk, but it isn't working. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Code
-- Select default macro book on initial load or subjob change.
function select_default_macro_book()
-- Default macro set/book
if player.sub_job == 'WAR' then
set_macro_page(1, 14)
elseif player.sub_job == 'DRK' then
set_macro_page(9, 14)
elseif player.sub_job == 'SAM' then
set_macro_page(10, 14)
else
set_macro_page(10, 14)
endThis is the code, and then up top I put:
Code
function user_setup()
select_default_macro_book()
endThese appear to be the only things in the other lua that I can see which would impact itk, but it isn't working. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Try adding this to the top of your gearswap (where all the arrays are)
Code
select_default_macro_book()
When I do that it says:
Sidra_DRG.lua 368 attempt to call global 'set_macro_page' (a nil value)
Wondering if maybe the Subjob definitions are in Mote's stuff that this lua isn't using, as the syntax is copied/pasted from a lua where it works with just the numbers changed.
Edit: Interestingly actually...If I have WAR sub when I change to DRG it refers to the line of code war WAR sub is, but if I have SAM sub it refers to that line...so it does know which subjob. It's more the book/page stuff it isn't understanding.
