Thread: Will DRG and PLD still be next to useless in 2.0?

Well based on your achievements I've been talking to people who have experience than you.

Well case back opened because regarsless of the case that I obviously have encountered. You're trying to make me sound incorrect by stating that the possible is impossible, scroll to the end of this vid and see for yourself: Flawless Garuda Win

my achievements? the only thing I dont have in this game is a Garuda kill, but my LS has killed her and we constantly get her to about 10-15 % so its only a matter of time. You on the other hand are still wrong.

You need to come up with a new approach to attacking me because you loose every time at this "I know something you don't" thing.

Chard has more then enough proven you wrong

Edit: just seen your OP edit glad you learned something from this experience you have become a better player because of it

I'm still not convinced DRG is the "best" but the posts by Meatdawg and Hyrist mainly have caused me to change my opinion that they can be on par. You win.

I wouldn't come in here and start something like this unless you have evidence to back it up. All you accomplish is simply letting your ass speak on your behalf.

THANK YOU!

I skipped a lot of pages but I just wanted to point this out for everyone. People think DRG and MNK suck, which is definitely not true. They're definitely skill based. I can pull off very high amounts of combos on DRG and people wonder how I do it.

It's not simply buttons, it's about timing. Sure, I have agreed that they are weaker in some battles than others, but they do rock just like any other job.

It's VERY possible to out DD a BLM too and steal the hate from any other job.

I am proud enough to say that I pulled at least a 14 hit combo on the job.

last time we tried the 1.22 mission we first had a blm in party for killing the adds. we wiped unfortunatley because he fastly ran out of MP, although we had a bard who constantly casted MP song.

well then i switched to DRG from WHM.. and then we did it almost easily.



I think DRG is great and better dd than monk. you have ENDLESS TP, so you can spam your attack ws. you have a dragonic skill which increases your attackpower GREATLEY (but lowers defense). you have 2 aeos and one is with aeo stun (gives the healers more time to heal)

it was much better and easier.


BLMs do good damage with one spell. no need to discuss. but how about DPS (damage per second).. they make small breaks between casts otherwise they ran out MP. they have no auto attack like dragoon which does additional damage between the skills.
the great advantage of BLM is that he is a ranged dd attacker and so doesnt get hit by melee attacks.


but otherwise i prefer definatley melee dd. i outdamaged some BLMs in some fights as a drg.

people dont even try out new set ups. for example stacking dragoons (depending on which fight) or what the heck ever.
