So after reading most of the posts in this thread, I think it's safe to say "loldrg" is dead (for now) & we've taken a step in the right direction of job balancing.

Every valid point made for or against which job is easier/strongest seems to have a legit rebuttle for the other side of the argument that doesn't trump the point, but more or less equalizes it.

I mained dragoon & monk up until I left for an extended break about 5 months ago (just started back up). I always felt like dragoon was more difficult to master because EVERYTHING you did had to be perfect in order to get your numbers up (while monk always felt stress free with great numbers every fight).

I am thrilled to see that I can now use either job depending on what I feel like playing that day free of guilt that I am hindering my party before we even started an instance.
