Coil groups don't want dragoons?

[Aeliott]

Hmm, a lot of people talking about this as if they only want 1 melee compositions. What happened to the double melee norm? :P

If you only have 1 in the group then I can kind of understand a group preferring Monk / Ninja simply because of the gap in utility. But anyway, I'll be embarrassed if he sees this, but our group's DRG always pulls ahead without fail on fights with some movement / drop-offs. Like others have said, what they lack in utility they make up for in more reliable and consistent direct damage. They're especially great at mowing down adds and have better AOE, which can be useful in T13 for example. Countless successful groups don't discriminate against DRGs anyway, so don't stress yourself over those nitpicky ones. DRGs are very respectable DPS.
