These are the notes for myself to have in a text window at the bottom of the screen for the last few dungeons before Heavensward in Final Fantasy 14. Very boring, and only relevant to DPS, but there's always the small chance someone might find them useful.

Also: I finished all the dungeons and am now playing Heavensward :D :D

Note that these won't make much sense unless you watch/read a more detailed guide first. Also sorry for the rich text artifacts, converting this from a TextEdit document was troublesome.
