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

[Cyfer]

An actual stun and increasing bard's damage by 10% permanently. a most likely incoming magic defence buff aswell as having more hp overall.

Lets not mention BLM's dps being lowered when any sort of movement is involved.
As for virus. It's funny you even mention it because your raid will hate you if you even think about using it over your smn/sch friends

If the argument is the less utility the more dps then there's no reason ninja and monk should deal more damage than dragoon and blm

Disembowel does not increase bard overall damage by 10% (does not buff DoT). Stun is basically useless for DRG in end game content, we use Leg Sweep and Spineshatter Dive for the slight dps increase/gap closer rather than using them for stun.
BLM dps is lower when any sort of movement is involved, but didn't SE buff BLM for this issue? Bear in mind that most class will also lose some dps when any sort of movement is involve (excluding bard).
As for virus, I don't see any issue of BLM virus, you could rotate BLM virus and smn/sch virus without having issue of antibody. My raid has 2 BLM and 1 SCH, they rotate their virus and we have never encounter any so called being hated by smn/sch friends.

Currently, they are comparing DRG with NIN and MNK. As the argument is why bother bringing a DRG as melee when they deal lesser dps, prone to dying from m.atk and having lesser utility compared to bringing NIN and MNK. Mentioning BLM might be an off topic issue.

Off Topic : BLM have Apoc, Virus, Manawall, Manaward, Eye for an eye and possessing high DPS on AoE attack
