You're going to have to start providing parses if you continue to talk in Absolutes, Athena. Again, it's not a matter of whether or not Monks are skilled or not, it's a matter of the fight mechanics outright prevent Monk from dealing optimum DPS and have a more punishing wind up than we do.


Because, I'm calling you out right now, you fail to take responsibility for the statements you make. This isn't even talking about doing the development work for them. We've got people of opposing opinions as to the actual dps outputs between your primary comparison marker here, which is monk. "I deal more damage on my monk and my monk is lesser geared." Is not substantial enough of a statment to make. You need to parse between your monk and Dragoon, or parse your Dragoon against a lesser geared monk and show us the data. You also have to display the use of this so-called Utility that's so important in action, otherwise, your statments fall flat, and amount to meaningless complaints on matters already slated to be addressed.

To put bluntly, you're blowing hot air with nothing to show for it, not even a recommendation. Just inane and blind demands with zero evidence or conceptual understanding of what's actually going and how to fix it. And it's infuriating, because I approached you thinking you had tackled this issue intellectually prepared, and what I get is the equivalent of a three year old holding a toy already going to the shop saying "mommy fix it and make it better!"

Considering you're a veteran member of this community, you should know better than to pull a Rokein. And sadly, even some of his complaints had better substance.

The most upsetting part about this is that all you've done is stated an opinion, continue to conjecture unsupported 'facts' and leave no room for the discussion to advance past the argument/conformation bias stage.

If you don't have ideas concerning Utility for Dragoon, which will be the only balance it needs, honestly, then let's start breaking it down as to what utilities can be provided. Cause right now, I'll tell you. Monk and Dragoon ARE comparable, they've been in constant argument about outputs since the start due to how fragile and volatile Monk's DPS is. So the winning argument here is utility and how to add more on top of having the game's most consistent slow.
