FFXI Dragoon No invites repeated

[AmyNeudaiz]

DRG is awesome on moogles. Most pick ups suck though, so they'll only rely on BLMs

I demolished Blm's on my dragoon on Moogle and Ifrit. But yeah, pick ups suck and people think Blm still beats everything every time. /sadface

A well geared Dragoon is a beast.

Even with my poor weapon, I'm typically pulling top damage on my DRG above Monks, Warriors, and Black Mages.

And the best tanking method seems to be slapping collusion on me because of that.

That said, there's a lot of factors in that. BLM is more of a straight forward DD with little concern for positioning besides evading attacks, and is fairly easy to gear for a good standard of damage. I don't begrudge people who state they'd rather have a blm. They want to play it safe instead of take a chance on an unknown. I can respect that.

Almost impossible to out damage a monk in ifrit now, drg being a close second. BLM is just a safer job so PUGs tend to prefer it. It's also harder for a tank to keep hate against a monk and drg.

[Ruri]

Think my moogle parse the other day was something like me 80k dmg total and the blms were about 50k

noob's use blm because they think because BLM hit hard they are the best DPS, but really there not there just hi hitters its the Overall DPS that matters. i seen loads of DRG out whoop everyone in a Ifrit party.

Me and a few mates of mine after 1.21 came out starting messing about with mnk burns on ifrit and after a few days of trying we finally did it and now we got that shit down.

If i feel like playing DRG to an endgame event and dont get to play it well fuck it i'm not going we shouldnt have to play jobs we dont want to just to get gear for our main that may also never be used.

People need to open there minds a little more and take chances fuck the safe way.

I wish there were more people like you.

Very true. I play DRG because I enjoy playing DRG. I don't want to be forced to play another class so I can actually join in on the end game content. That's a major problem in any game, being forced into one play style while you drastically prefer the other.

I could say the same thing with exactly the opposite meaning. I like to play Dragoon it is my main but im not gonna gimp the other 7 people in my group when I could easily switch to a more needed/wanted class. Not to say DRG isnt good in Moogle or Ifrit, it is actually very beast in most any situation. Though I hate people with your type of attitude that think more about yourself instead of your group.

That's a difference in perspective between you and I.

You believe I'm harming a group by specializing into a single job. I view it as providing them the best that job can offer by specializing. If me being in the group is viewed as highly harmful, I'll opt out.

But if I jump on some class I have leveled just to get my paragons crown in order to conform to the groups wishes, I can't guarantee the same level of performance anymore. I'm now on an under-geared and personally undervalued class my focus is conflicted and my instincts are that of a Dragoon, not a Black Mage or whatever job I have to switch to.

When I'm playing Dragoon, I'm focused, I know my extents and limits.

When I offer my DRG, you know what you're getting. You can be sure that I want to push as hard as I can as safe as I can and be the best DRG I can offer. I can't guarantee that on a job I'm flatly not interested in.

but you have the attitude of putting the group before yourself which is good, I'm specifically talking about folks that refuse to play any other class because they only want to play one class. I guess DRG is a bad example since it is good in just about any situation. Hamlets come to mind though which DRG is completely useless in.
