So, stop judging DRGs on parse numbers as they reflect average damage per second (which is sustained). Thank you.

As for fixing DRG, it needs 1) increased magic defense, on par with that of the other melee, with or without a higher physical defense and 2) Increase in spike damage potential as NIN treads a little too close to DRG numbers. Done.
P.S. After any and all changes, DRG DPS will, and should, continue to be lower than that of MNK and NIN because it is a burst damage dealer, an add killer.
