DRG has been broken for far too long. Fix it SE

I don't understand why people are shouting for a M DEF buff for dragoon. It doesn't help our dps at all. Maybe if we get cleaved or some kind of magic attack hits us during a jump we get 10-30% less damage dealt but how does that help in terms of dps? It doesn't seem like it would be a viable solution for survival either since we're not tanks. Also in the case of AOEs we do receive healing from our healers, so how does MDEF make the job that much better?

Giving healers less heart attacks when taking unavoidable magic damage is still helping I guess? It's like when you screwed something up and then you look at someone who has that disapproval look at you and you nervously laugh. Except it's out of your hands.

But it's not like dragoons will hit 1 hp out of 5000 hp and monks and brds will be at 2500. I've never encountered a situation where healers would have to apply an AOE heal and then individually supplement a dragoon with a cure/cure2. It seems like people are just complaining more about the pretty number stats than the actual application.

Get to t11, get hit with the fireball, tell me drg doesn't need an mdef buff.
