Dragoon Rework

[Petite]

Then shouldn't we be pushing for that more universal solution that would help everyone (allowing at least the first actionable step of macros to be properly queued), instead of removing an iconic (if increasingly lackluster) skill just to make room for a duplicating of another we already have but now with /turn camera built into it?

Hmm, I wouldn’t say SSD is iconic at all. Jump definitely is though.

I’m not in favor of macros being smoother to use. And I don’t think it’s a tall ask to have a forward version. RPR has both after all.

I play on legacy too and this is not really an issue unless you need to time extremely tight EJs to keep uptime.

But the point still stands that it wouldn’t hurt/disrupt anybody/anything to have that option available don’t you agree? It's just QoL.

Also animation locks are part of DRG, it's normal that it requires more effort for us to move during bursts.

It’s not that it requires more effort, (it doesn’t really, just slight planning in rare instances). It’s that, to me, using them in succession -5 during our 2 min burst- feels like I'm micro-stuttering. I give a pass to Star Diver because that’s what an « ultimate » ability should feel like. I just wish we could move our characters during the animation as soon as we arrive in melee range to our targets, with one exception being Star Diver as I said previously.

.

I like current DRG, but I seem to be the only one hoping for DRG to evolve even further. Most want it to remain the same, which I understand, but I didn’t expect to also see resistance to even QoL suggestions (mine being smoother jumps and a forward version of EJ).

Feel free to disagree, I honestly don’t mind and actually like the interaction, but I wish more people would want to see new, flashy, and engaging stuff. It's like we're all too paralyzed to move forward because of the thought of SE giving DRG the SMN treatment.
