Just keep showing your filthy arrogance. DDing in FFXI wasn't just about spike damage (parses proved as much), and DRG wasn't about only DPS either. But then again, no other job even came close to the healing efficiency a DRG could put out (6mp for 600~800hp at any moment in time, and 6mp for 1200~1400hp healed every couple minutes), and while still being able to outparse most DPS.

With the Wyvern which died with one AOE, 20 minutes of no healing. You're now pointless in any party. Also BLU could out heal, so could WHM and so could DNC. You're completely clueless if you think anything different.

Yes, without a wyvern, a Drg/Mage was crippled, but nowhere near as badly as you're trying to make it out. Not to mention the fact that it didn't simply happen to those that knew how to manage their wyvern well enough.

P.S. Like I said, I did everything I talked about using a Thalassocrat and hardly any endgame gear. It'd definitely be no problem for any of those I know to destroy any Sam or War.

Hardly.

Sure FFXI had its problems of balancing, but you just gotta blow shit way out of proportion.

I don't think you had buyers remorse with FFXI. I think you had buyers remorse with DRG. (and probably DRK) I mained MNK, and I have no silly ideas that I could keep up with SAM's DD prowess. Calling yourself the most efficient healer in the game was enough to show that you were the kind of person who wouldn't gear correctly and eyeball all your damage.

Tell me what other job can heal for 600hp with 6 or less MP then. I'm waiting.

P.S. I kept my DRG geared, for the record. Like I said, I had a 6hit-Penta TP setup with 18% haste and 95% accuracy rating. I never eyeballed my damage, I proved it.

MP wasn't an issue with the correct party setup. Efficiency only goes so far, consistency is far more necessary. If you were consistently using Dia to cure then you weren't outputting nearly enough damage to be worth a spot in a party. Instead have a SAM and rely on the RDM. I never invited DRGs to my meripos, it was worth waiting longer to invite a SAM who could actually kill birds fast enough to make enormous healing unnecessary.

You must've been one sad MNK if you thought you couldn't beat a SAM.
