Aside from having to learn when to use or save your Geirskogul to keep up your Blood of the Dragon buff, you will have to be careful with timing your Jumps. The reason why Dragoons are so notorious for dying in boss fights is because they cannot move while executing Jumps, which makes it very easy to take damage from an unanticipated AoE effect. This means that in order to stay alive and optimize your DPS as a Dragoon, you have to study your bosses up front to know when you can or cannot Jump.
