DBAGE octaves : 8-string guitar in Drop E (EBEADGBE)
D dorian mode 3nps : General

box shapes for a 8-string guitar tuned to Drop E (EBEADGBE) :-

As always a more long term solution to fretboard navigation is to see scales as INTERVAL shapes rather than note names - as these are universal to all scales, arpeggios and chords rather than specific to one particular root note - with this in mind the intervals for the D dorian mode are detailed below in the DBAGE octaves manner:-
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all five box shapes for the
D dorian mode in the
DBAGE octaves style.
