Easiest dps right now

[Sessurea]

Dragoon without a doubt.

[Neri]

Dragoon without a doubt.

With 2 additional skills which require strict positional, I disagree.

[LordMaitreya]

Dragoon without a doubt.

Do you even play this game?

[VisRalis]

Dragoon without a doubt.

Really? xDD



(I'd say Bard & Ninja is easier)

[Pluvia]

It really is all relative to the person themselves this thread is pointless lol

Idk drg after expansion, but pre expansion it was eaiest. Strict rotation. No procs. No choices or decisions to be made. Was hands down without a doubt the easiest job to play. Any1 who refers to the length of the drg rotation in those days as an indication of difficulty doesn't know drg because it all boiled down to priority in the end.

Bard was harder from a min max perspective I promise you that. Right up to the end of fcob pre echo certain bards kept raising the bar higher and higher. There was even a 560 t11 parse ( where no lame milk strats are possible ). This was from insane overplay of a class. It was kinda hard to overplay drg pre 3.0. im sure a lot of drgs wont agree "my class is hard qq " but w/e.

And yes, obviously, the above is my opinion. Useless and subjective as any other opinion in this thread.

Someone who mains Bard saying that Bard is harder and saying DRG's "qq".

Yep. Thanks for being incredibly biased.

Of course the classes we main will instantly be the ultimate in complexity and depth to us because we spend the most time with them.

Moving on, I find Monk to be the most straightforward personally (I used to main it so perhaps it's from familiarity?), though I haven't leveled it past 50, so I'm only comparing it to my other classes at 50. This answer will of course differ for each person, as we each have our own preferences.

Test out the classes yourself to see which you enjoy the most ^^

This is such a dumb statement. The DRG rotation was always "long", but that didn't make it complicated whatsoever. At the end of the day it was CT-FT-FT combo's on repeat with HT and Ph alternating in between. The only thing that changed in the new patch is a 4th hit with a positional and Geirskogul. Congrats, you finally have to think about what you're doing...

Wow.. and other jobs do? MNK is easily as brain dead Flank-Flank-Back, Back-Back-Flank, Flank-Flank-Flank repeat?
NIN had their opener and then just keep up Huton?
Black Mage 4 F1's per Astral phase, fire weave appropriately?
BRD arguably the easiest class in the game.

Where does this vitriol come from? Show me concrete proof that any DPS has more to juggle right now than DRG. Heck, NIN doesn't even need to watch Huton anymore :P

Wrong, we do have to watch huton, we have to interrupt or normal dps rotation to include the new armor crush rotation to refresh Huton for 30 seconds. If not done well, one of our dots, or our slashing debuff will fall off the enemy, resulting in a DPS loss.

Furthermore, if you're not watching Huton, and it falls off and you dont have Jutsu up, your DPS plummets. Just like losing GL with a monk, we have to wait several seconds before we can get it back.
