Thread: 7.1 Dragoon Changes Complaints

It's like after freaking out the DRG player base with the word Rework they tossed their hands up and said 'Fine, we just won't try anything then' and now we get these awful decisions.

Thank you! If you're a professional animator I'd love to hear you drop your thoughts on those animations in that thread if you ever have the time.

Instead of trying to change the few things that make a job different from the others because you don't like how this one job plays maybe it's ok that we have a job that has skills that move you and lots of weaves. If you don't like those things there's 20 other jobs to try that don't do that and probably a few more jobs in the future.

I agree 100%.

My least favorite job in this game is Dancer. I'd rather be waterboarded than play that job for a myriad of reasons, but you don't see me in DNC threads listing all the things I would change about it because plenty of people love it the way it is. I just don't play that job. Why SE is so dead set on ruining jobs for the people who love them to try to appeal to people who dislike them is beyond me. It's like every job is in a race to the bottom trying to appeal to the absolute lowest common denominator bottom of the barrel players.

i think if i had to remove 2 ogcds i would have preferred life surge being remade into a real defensive and mirage dive being removed with the potency added to high jump to make it feel more impactful.

in general i hope in 8.0 they focus on making jumps more of the focus and make them feel better, possibly make the big ones gcds

I agree. It would be nice if they stopped catering to the people who don't like the job. By trying to make it appealing they are driving away the people who like the job and stuck with it since the beginning.

That's literally how we got current MCH and SMN.

Honestly continuing to play this I would at this point even just take splitting the potency from Nastrond in half and letting us press it twice. Just give me a little more button pressing, as a treat.

Something I noticed with myself as well. We lowered our standards in the face of SEs silence in this, which is... not great.

3 Nastronds back! o/

We're all in the bargaining phase of mourning the slow disassembly of our job.

I agree, Give me back my 3 stacks of Nastrond!

Take all our nastronds and give us 3 stardivers wuehaheuwhauehauhaheuahuah

Can't double weave a Stardriver so in a way that would be fixing the 'too many weaves' issue...

This might be the scariest suggestion I've heard! It would certainly make the buff windows tighter >.>
