Dragoon Updates!

I really don't understand the reasoning of this. DRG is getting improved HP, eva and parry because... They're stopping to have their wyvern heal. I'm a career DRG and I really find this reasoning to not make any sense.

So what, are you saying you don't want to have better stats? Who cares what the reasoning is? You're getting more HP, evasion and parry. Why would you complain about that?

The reasoning, to be more specific, is that in order to help you take a little bit less damage so you don't need to waste as much time using healing breath. That combined with a stronger healing breath means less wasted time casting a spell to use it, and therefore less DPS lost. Get it now?

Good update but SE fails realize with abyssea and vw the 20 minute recast timer on call wyvern still doesnt cut it even with steady wing and enhanced wyverns defense. Dragoon needs its pet as much as puppetmaster who gets duex ex automata and beastmaster gets a 5 minute recast timer. All these new breaths dont help when your waiting 18 minutes cause a ga/ja spell 1 shot ur wyvern

Also the wyvern breaths proc system in voidwatch is horrid. You get all the right jobs for procs and you see extremely weak to wyvern ice breath and all you do is the same breath over and over. Then your pet dies trying to proc and your timers at 15 minutes............

Honestly I could careless about more evasion and parry on DRG. You shouldn't be tanking anything. If you pull hate, you need to shed it. If you can't shed it, 10 evasion and 15 parry isn't going to save you. DRG was never and will never be a job that is meant to be tanking on any level. It has always been a job that does great damage, while supporting the rest of the alliance, without holding hate. If you're not holding hate, you're not getting hurt. If you're not getting hurt, then you having higher defensive stats for doing healing breaths makes no sense.

Yes, "moar iz butter" but that's not what I'm addressing. The reasoning of giving DRG more defensive stats because DRG has a better Healing Breath and status curing breaths is pretty flimsy. I'm saying that if DRG's getting better stats so that it takes less damage, it should be because they're better DDs now, not because they can spend half a second to HB and generate hardly any enmity from it.
