Why Does It Feel Like Poor Play Is Acceptable (I'm Venting.)

[Avatre]

3.1 I had multiple cases of DRG's with VIT accessories, killing their damage so they could stand in AoE.

Neither of those existed then. Those aren't the issue.

Admittedly, when I first started, I threw a few points(less than 10) into VIT because I was running solo FATEs between queues, and it was the easiest way to get them done without dying. Eventually, after learning DRG better, I swapped everything to STR. Never had VIT main accessories unless it was the best I had at the time.
