Did DRG and MNK get hit that hard? I've been DRG and clearing relevant content since ARR but I've never struggled so much in terms of DPS.

P.D. I am mostly going fot crit or direct hit if I can on my melds. Thanks for any advice, I'm just a little worried since I love my class.
At 314 I do around 3600 class depending (between 3500 and 3700 depending on the other classes)

DRG traded in its personal dps for support dps so take that as you will but as you practice more you will start to do more. As long as you can clear the fight, no need to worry too much.

DRG in a vacuum is now 7th, so 3rd from the bottom. The idea was to give them a lot of offensive support but I do not think it panned out the way the development team intended. That being said we have yet to hit the content that requires any real skill so it really doesn't matter atm. The only thing that is being hurt right now is peoples egos (and mine, as a dragoon main).
