Stop complaining about DRG LB, the real enemy is SAM LB

[Midareyukki]

They're both awful. SAM LB can oneshot an entire party, but DRG LB is just as terrible since it deals super high damage on an AoE, the indicator is garbage if you're colourblind and you can't CC it.

Huh? 20k is not super high damage lol
The indicator can be tricky to spot, but thats the point lol, most lbs are hard to spot
You can also GUARD against it lmao

How is that anywhere near as bad as one button party wipe that ignores GUARD? hello?

It stacks with Life of the Dragon. So that 20K turns into 25K, 37.5K if you're hitting point blank range and get the 50% damage boost (and if I have my math right). That's nothing to sneeze at, and can devastate people easily.

30k in the 5 yalms of the center of the circle.. 20k +50% damage = 30k dunno if you can stack life of the dragon with... some drg need to come and test it.

Yes but you forget one crucial detail, YOU CAN GUARD AGAINST DRG LB so that 40k damage is actually 4k L O L
This is why DRG LB has to be hard to spot.
You can see the dragoon LB progress bar, you can see when they jump, you can see the area of attack, you have ample time to either move out or use GUARD for 90% MITIGATION.
IF DRG LB broke GUARD I could understand why people want it nerfed, but as of now there hasn't been any single legitimate reason to complain about DRG LB.

Forcing 5 Guards at once is a very strong thing to do. Saving LB after people use Guard is also a very strong thing.

Breaking through guard and OS'ing an entire party is also a very strong thing

Pretty sure you can sneeze at it with guard
