the LulDRG thing hasn't really been a thing at all this expansion. Yea if you do a derp moment you might hear in duty finder groups or pug groups. LulDRG or LULgoon. But no one is going to give you crap for playing a DRG. Balance wise it's from what I know in a pretty good spot. Definitely better than most. I haven't seen a lot of complaints about it. It does decent damage brings decent raid utility. It's fairly straightforward in it's rotation but optimizing can still be a bit tricky at times if you theorycraft yourself. There are plenty of guides to help. There's really not many cons to playing a dragoon. Still be weary of animation lock on jump it's better but not completely fixed. Be aware of your surroundings, don't stand in AoE's. You'll always find spots in groups. It's a little lacking in the AoE department with no real AoE rotation but it can still aoe, and that's just my opinion.
