As it stand WT is a downgrade for F&C which just doesn't feel right when player are given one mechanic at 56 only to have it altered at 58.
That's patently false on multiple leves.

First you lose nothing. Every time you use Fang and Claw, you have a flank attack. What you get, is the added direction from Wheeling Thurst, which again, while RNG, gives us alternating angles from attack. It is debatable that Rear is more useful than Flank given that it lines up directly with our Chaos Thrust, our only required 3rd hit positional. I'm more annoyed when Fang and Claw procs than Wheeling Thrust.

Second, your mechanics alter with every introduced skill. That's like saying the mechanic of Fang and Claw and Wheeling thrust are both undermined by GK, because it forces you to re-balance the mechanic, or any major introduction really. Impulse Drive changed the way you DPS until you get Life Surge, then it's change again when you get Disembowel, and again when you introduce the directional from Chaos Thrust. If a player has problems adjusting to mechanical and rotational changes at they level, they probably should not be playing RPGs.

Anyways, this is all really pointless griping. Dragoons are not suffering in the least.
