The complexity of DRG's rotation lies in oGCD management and keeping stuff on cooldown. If you make the GCDs more complex, they'll probably reduce oGCD complexity (whether that complexity is enough or not is another debate).

DRG is also the most positional-intensive job with 50% of the GCDs being positionals. This would change if the combo string was reduced, and the positional dance is fun to do, even if it could be a bit better (see below), as it keeps the flow and makes the job not be boring between bursts.



I'd rather keep them separate but allow you to choose which one to use first after Chaotic Spring and Heavens' Thrust to help with positionals (and to hopefully do the same if the 5th hit became upgraded in 7.0...).
Well done completely misreading my post I guess? I never said change the combo, just how many buttons are required to use the combo. It matters because it makes for less RSI with idiotic key bindings, you can keep all the skills and all the combos but with just less buttons. They want to keep button bloat down because it makes controller and keyboard usage difficult.
