Dragoon is too heavy now.

I do find it interesting that "feels better to use" is getting associated with potency. I get if it plays badly or is busy, but giving a potency buff doesn't suddenly make the job fun. But if the meaning is for competition between dps classes damage sure, to each there own.

I just hope drg doesn't become even easier...than it already is. Sometimes we get an over correction in the attempt to adjust gameplay (sigh).

I find the new drg to be burst plus sustain level of busy. And I'm glad there is something to do in between the rail guided 5 gcd post-burst. But...that's just me.

At least for me, feeling better and potency relate in the sense that it feels bad to know that you put in more effort, do more positionals, and animation lock yourself to do less damage than reaper, which also has more utility, like you are being punished performance wise for picking a worse class in every aspect, ofc many people dont care about it, but some definitely do.

About you second point, i agree i enjoy pressing buttons am happy you have something to do in between gcds, i just think those buttons you press could be way more satisfying, sure it adds some complexity to weave lifesurge twice during lance charge, but is it fun? Id be fine with dragoon having the casts per minute it currently has, but i just think it would be even better if all those casts felt good instead of some of them feeling weak.

High risk - high reward.
DRG is kind of easy but with the changes you need to Hustle way more compared to ShB and compared to RPR is DRG way harder.

- DoT Management.
- Buff Management (life surge, dragon sight, litany etc) and you have to make sure to use your life phase during your buff Windows yadayadayada
- more positionals - and no way to Delay them during your rotation
- way more and i mean WAY more OGCDs in General
- Animation lock
- inferior gap closer compared to RPR
- stardiver potency is a joke compared to communio even under buffs
- AoEs are straight lines--> it is so annyoing to use your aoe rotation on the edge of a mob Group-> use stardiver to jump right into the group and walk back to your previous Position to Hit everyone with your Line AoE again...

So well if DRG is easy RPR is braindead.
