On a high level, looking at all the Damage Dealer Jobs, there is something to be said about:

* Is there a need or want for the "Glass Cannon" Archetype in Final Fantasy XIV? (Super High Damage, Super Low Defense)


That would be one way to separate out one DD Job vs. another (for overall feel).

If the "Glass Cannon" is still desirable, and SE has made Dragoons with such AWFUL Magic Defense (again, CRAFTERS have Higher Magic Defense than Dragoons LOL), then it might be worth considering boosting up Dragoons to truly have the "Cannon" portion of the Glass Cannon Archetype.

Give Dragoons Top DPS for the Risk of Dying the Easiest.

Just a thought.

Or, look to great suggestions for individual Action Tweaks people are suggesting in the thread (lots of great ideas)!
