Dragoon and Monk utterly demolish it rDPS wise. And it isn't like either are significantly harder to figure out. One might argue Dragoon is just as easy.



And? You don't make a job overpowered to compensate for bad design.
Dragoon is a lot more complex than monk is to play currently.Sure the rotation may seem simple enough.But there is a lot to the timing and lining up buffs and high end use of the likes of elusive jump to maximize dps potential.Dragoon is massivly punishing for making a single mistake in rotation or having jump animations delay combos ever so slightly if timed wrong which can have a snowball effect.
Monk is currently just easy mode especially with so much of a crutch for hitting positionals with the 2 charges of true north that regenerate so fast.It's doing way too much damage for minimum effort.
