And if you have carpal tunnel, you have to figure out how you are going to bind it with all of the junk you have to figure out without causing repetitive strain. It has three ST combos, and while one is two buttons, it's already a bit much when you also have to bind stuff like Iaijutsu and its Ctrl-C + Ctrl-V partner which is on its own button for some reason. Also for some reason Third Eye has two additional actions it interacts with. I found it comfortable to play when I picked it up but it started to cause the RSI to flare up when I caught up in SB, and it only got worse with Shadowbringers.

    DRG has a more moderated pace, as far as melee goes, if you wanted something similar but more comfortable.
    I can't recommend DRG, it's got more awkward rotations and your always fighting to keep Blood of the Dragon going which just increases the stress and discourages disengaging with the boss. Not only that but DRG has a bunch of buffs you have to juggle: Life Surge, Lance Charge, Battle Litany and Dragon Sight, with the last one being especially awkward to use if your trying to reduce how much you use your keyboard and mouse. Add to that you have 4 jump attacks that aren't part of any normal ABC rotation so you gotta try to keep up with all the buffs and jumps while also trying to keep Blood of the Dragon bar alive while also keeping up with all your dive attacks. I can't recommend this job to someone who has carpal tunnel. Playing DRG is a juggling act.
