Just got wheeling thrust.... Can someone explain the point of it to me?

[Arienal]

So I just hit 58 dragoon and unlocked wheeling thrust and I just don't understand the point of it?

There is no point to it. its a bullcrap mechanic that was thrown in as lazy design just to add another positional. the term i believe is called 'button bloating', all they did was copy/paste one attack onto two buttons.

Huh? You absolutely have the option.

No, they dont. the vast majority of content in this game right now is nothing more than a series of DPS checks, you dont meet the check, you fail the content, period. saying that the average playerbase, aka non-savage runners, are essentially blocked from content purely because they dont have the time/drive/whatever that serious raiders do is heavily flawed. having to fight both the battle mechanics, AND your own job abilities is absurd. SE wants a mechanics heavy game? thats fine, by all means make it mechanic heavy. but then going so far as to implement job ability sets for multiple jobs, not JUST drg where you are losing a considerable amount of dps in content thats one big dps race..it's absurd, no other way to put it.
