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

[Maxwell]

Positional requirements feels more like an annoyance than a fun mechanic. Most likely a legacy of 1.0. Jumps should be the central mechanic of DRG. Lower cooldowns on those with additional effects/buffs/debuffs would be nice. A bit of a potency boost would be welcomed.

I have a feeling that DRG gear choices were broken as well. Stuck with s.speed at the cost of DET. Could get some nice crit rate, but horible det. 2.4 seems to alleviate that a bit.

That's like saying casting time for casters is more of an annoyance than a fun mechanic. DRG's issue is not the ability to improperly land HT / ID lol a DRG worth his / her salt would have this innate feeling of boss positioning - I've been playing DRG long enough to able to keep an eye on the tank and the mob to predict their movements when they are moving. The issue of DRG's low DPS is just because we don't have innate buffs like MNKs and NINs do and our weaponskills' potency numbers just suck. Like I said in my posts some few pages ago, DRGs do not fill any of the pyramid spectrum while MNKs and NINs are technically "perfect" because they fill all 3 sides of the pyramid.
