What is Stone Sea Sky Calculator?

The Stone Sea Sky Calculator is an essential tool for high-end raiders in FFXIV. It converts the results of the “Stone, Sea, Sky” training dummies into a readable DPS number. Since the game does not provide an official in-game DPS meter, this calculation is the only “official” way to verify if your current gear and rotation meet the DPS checks for Savage and Ultimate raids.

By using this calculator, players can identify if they are underperforming due to rotational errors or insufficient gear (ilvl) before joining a raid party.

How to Calculate Stone Sea Sky Calculator (Example):

  1. Select your job and the raid dummy (e.g., Arcadion M1S).
  2. Note the Total HP of that dummy (e.g., 6,000,000).
  3. Enter the time left when the dummy dies (e.g., 10 seconds).
  4. Subtract 10 from the 180s total (Result: 170s elapsed).
  5. Divide 6,000,000 by 170 to get 35,294.12 DPS.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: Why does the SSS DPS differ from my actual raid DPS?
A: SSS dummies do not have raid buffs (like Battle Litany or Mug) or mechanic downtime. Your SSS DPS is a “pure” baseline of your individual rotation.

Q: What is the standard time limit for SSS?
A: Almost all SSS trials are strictly 180 seconds (3 minutes).

Q: Is SSS DPS the same as a parser?
A: It is a mathematical estimation based on kill time. It is highly accurate for single-target scenarios without downtime.

Q: Does this calculator include pet damage?
A: Yes, as long as the Total HP of the dummy accounts for all damage dealt by the player and their summons.
