Entire post is being edited. I misread the patch notes when it came out and neglected to reply to comments on this thread after page 2. Yeah this is quite nice when you occassionally miss positionals, but I did want something better for people who hit all of their positionals, though i acknowledge it isnt always possible, true north helps with that.

Anyways, I'm hoping for something in the 4.1 patch that will change the eyes mechanic a bit. Lowering the amount of eyes to 3, and giving dragonfire dive dive ready would be pretty nice. and maybe making LotD a little bit better than it is. I still think dragoons could use a buff since they're lower than ninjas who bring more utility. I'd like to see them a little bit closer to monk and many players I have seen would agree that LotD and the eyes are a little bit eeh.'

This changes effects only uncomboed and out of position potencies.
You now hit harder while missing your positionals with the combo.
You hit for less while just using it without combos.
You hit for the same like before while comboed and get the positionals.

In overall as long as you get every positional you wont see a difference.
But in encounters where you get forced out of the positionals for a third of the fight or so you should see a DPS gain. Just like 2% but a gain is a gain.

I actually ran Stone Vigil HM last year with a dragoon who did nothing but spam Chaos Thrust over and over... Great, now people like him have even less reason to learn their job. ._.
