On the topic of DRG being busy and button bloat.

My meaning is the ending strings for drg go from a hard punch to a light tickle. While the total potency of the entire string can be high, the fact that it hits a crescendo in the middle of the string is the problem.

DRG's potencies are kinda low overall. Even our strongest attack is "low" if we compare it to other jobs' strongest attacks, but I personally find that a good thing. If your potencies are more average but you get a lot of them, you're less likely to get RNG screwed with crits and the like, which is something that many other jobs with 1000+ potencies suffer from.

Until they finish their campaign to autocrit anything higher than 1000 potency; Then DRG will be wanted in fewer groups for 2 reasons.

If the overall potency of the string didn't change, that's fine. My thing is I don't like the string hitting its peak at the second/third hit then jumping off a cliff with the weaksauce Fang and Claw nonsense. So let's say, heavens' thrust did 360 potency and wheeling thrust at the end did 480 (or whatever the current potency of heavens' thrust is now, I forget if it's 460 or 480), then that's fine. When I am saying they should reorder the potencies of some attacks, that's what I mean, not frontload the potency into one GCD. Otherwise you hit samurai's problem of high potencies and crit (and that's a whole new can of worms that isn't a part of this thread.)

Again, to reiterate, make the string build to the payoff, not pay it off in the middle then make the end lame.
