    Keen Flurry is actually pretty good, basically guaranteed 20% damage reduction from unavoidable physical damage in raid. The recent example would be Spiral Dive from Knights in Thordan EX, Earthshaker and his jumping stack attack in Seph EX

    Not that I expected many people to know.

    And no, Foresight rarely amount to any noticeable mitigation on its own.(5% at best)

    It was a while ago, but I heard Foresight amounts to roughly ~7% physical damage reduction for tanks. No idea what it looks like now that we gain a lot more defense for every armour piece.

    However, with Dragoons having less defense, it likely isn't as good.

    And I'll admit I cross-classed Keen Flurry on my Ninja when progressing stuff like AS1 and Thordan Ex. <.<

    As a SCH, when there is a WHM in the party ... I usually just check to make sure my Fairy is up and that's about it. Yeah we both can group buff the protect spell, but they get group Stoneskin. Takes forever to SS a whole party (8 people) one at a time. I wish they'd let us and AST have SS2.

    That moment when you have two bards in the party who never even think about using WM.

    As a Dragoon I always feel a little lackluster while this is going on lol

    I just usually bide my time until the right actually starts and I get to RELEASE THE DRAGON with the awesome looking BotD buff.

    How about Feint? Every boss is immune to slow Can be used in PvP but even then I still don't use it.

    I have a request SE. Can you replace the Keen Flurry Trait and Feint Trait? They are really useless and they could be swapped for something actually related to our DPS.

    My DRG had a 100% parry rate for Turn 9 a couple of times.
    As Warrior I only dreamed of such high parry procs!

    Reading back in this topic would show you that Keen Flurry is not useless at all O.O

    Aside from what everyone else has said, it's also useful when you take agro from a tank, or an ad goes for a healer and you rip it off them and they deal physical damage. Keen Flurry is off the global cooldown, so you're not losing anything at all or breaking a combo by activating it, unlike Feint.

    From a Monk main, whose used to making sure I'm in Fists of Fire, Chackas charged, Form Shifting to Coeurl in the pre-fight prep phase, and now levelling up Dragoon, its a pretty accurate feeling.

    Like...I'm looking at my hotbar trying to find what buffs or stances I should be popping and like "...oh. Well uh...t-take you time getting ready. I'll wait..."
