Not really for me to decide. But the difference is that Ninja gets this utility no matter the group comp. Dragoon requires a specific group composition. Ninja slots well into any comp, and gains higher increases the more DPS the rest of the group does. Ninja also has shadewalker and smokescreen. That doesn't take into account their slashing debuff that is guaranteed to buff at least 3 party members, potentially 4 or more (though duplicate classes are not ideal, so 4 is the max I would consider.) So overall, I would say: no, dragoon does not need "massive nerfs".
