The Current State of Dragoon

[Sepher]

Dragoon didn't really lose Power Surge, the total damage was just Folded into Jump so you don't have to hit 3 buttons to attack twice every minute, and Spineshatter was just buffed in general. You're also ignoring the flat potency buffs to most of the Combo actions overall.

I'm not ignoring the potency buffs they are just insufficient. They are in place to make up for the Disembowel nerf which was a flat 5% nerf to all DRG moves as well as utility. Losing Leg sweep is a 130 potency attack every 20 seconds and it shouldn't have been removed since both MNK and NIN did not lose their equivalent moves. They only lost the stun/silence effect. With Power Surge taken away the potency loss from these are not made up with the increased potentiates.
