SAM out classing all other DPS

[Lastelli]

I thought the point of his post was to highlight that DRG is considerably weaker than the rest.

Well...trick attack has a 60 seconds cd, dragon sight 120 seconds so ideally you can have dragon sight on 1 dps every 2 trick attacks. But yes I agree that DRG needs some love. I haven't even leveled it yet but just by looking at SSS dps requirements it's pretty clear that the dev team was very, very cautious with DRG personal dps because it brings so much utility...but I believe they went overboard a little. Though if I understand correctly, many dragoons have a problem with the new DRG gameplay because of how life of the dragon interacts with mechanics and jumps and I'm not sure that can be changed too much at this point.

Well, NIN brings more utility (than any melee, and honestly only BRD beats it out of all the dps), and they seemed fine in buffing it despite that.
I really feel for DRG players right now.
(Also, props for actual smart critique of the numbers before )
