    The irony of this complaint.... lol. You wanted them to target life surge and mirage dive, the primary two aspects of the job that require thought.... then complain about them removing nastrond and suggest that it would have taken more thought to press nastrond 3 times per burst in lieu of managing mirage dive and life surge optimally?

    Like............ It's very disingenuous. Almost as disingenuous as the people calling me a troll.

    Just voicing my opinion, with others who are unhappy with the change.

    It is not good, the job feels very empty now, especially during odd minutes.

    In general the Dawntrail changes were abysmal, realistically not giving anything interesting to DRG aside from Winged Glide, level 100 was basically the same as 90 during Endwalker and now level 90 even before the 7.1 change was boring and now even more so.

    Horrendous timing as well, removing fun from a already suffering job due to poor handling by the designer team who for whatever reason did not go through with the hinted at ((((rework))))) 2 weeks before an ultimate raid.

    So DRG now will only become worse or get reworked entirely next expansion.

    Worst part is, it is likely to be even worse or if they don't go through with the rework we will simply gain a different flavor of buttons to what we already had like giving us 2 Nastrond casts instead of 1.

    For the most part I don't understand why DRG was touched during 7.1 in the first place and why was Nastrond changed instead of Life Surge or Mirage Dive.

    While I am personally not a fan of Mirage Dive as it doesn't serve a real purpose as it did and is just there as a reminder/leftover ability, it does serve as a fun optimization for those that want to go for it as awkward as it might be.

    However, why is Life Surge in the game? There is no way someone who actually levelled the job to 100 in the last month would consider removing Nastrond over Life Surge.

    Really hoping DRG gets a change in 7.11 for Eden, as unlikely as that is.

    TL;DR Job designer team is lost and will continue to make DRG worse at this rate.

    Apart from double mirage dive which is painfully boring I don't see how it takes any thought at all, life surge on the other hand actually does require a thinking brain to press optimally since boss fights aren't striking dummies and shouldn't be removed.

    Also you are a troll but I took the bait because I like life surge :^)
