FFXI Dragoon No invites repeated

BLM is a safer option that DRG due to the ability to do damage from afar. That's not to say a DRG can't dodge plumes, but it's more of a gamble, specially in a PUG.

actually drg job is to kill plumes and if ur groups any good you should be skipping the plumes phase anyways

Just wanted to come in here and say me and my pal always go as a drg and mnk duo for ifrit and moogle, with success.

DRG is awesome on moogles. Most pick ups suck though, so they'll only rely on BLMs

I demolished Blm's on my dragoon on Moogle and Ifrit. But yeah, pick ups suck and people think Blm still beats everything every time. /sadface

A well geared Dragoon is a beast.

Even with my poor weapon, I'm typically pulling top damage on my DRG above Monks, Warriors, and Black Mages.

And the best tanking method seems to be slapping collusion on me because of that.

That said, there's a lot of factors in that. BLM is more of a straight forward DD with little concern for positioning besides evading attacks, and is fairly easy to gear for a good standard of damage. I don't begrudge people who state they'd rather have a blm. They want to play it safe instead of take a chance on an unknown. I can respect that.

You're confusing plumes and eruptions with spikes. Either way this discussion is about PUGs, and due to their randomness in skill, BLM will still be the safer bet.

Almost impossible to out damage a monk in ifrit now, drg being a close second. BLM is just a safer job so PUGs tend to prefer it. It's also harder for a tank to keep hate against a monk and drg.

No im not. in garuda drgs job is to kill plumes by ranged with "Rain of Talons". And there are also bad pug blms ive seen it too many times to count.
