double post but:

do you guys use mercy stroke? I'm not enjoying warrior a lot but I'll level it if my fellow drgs find it useful

It's helpful when burning down adds and the last stretch of a boss, but you can expect to only use it 2-5ish times per fight depending on how many adds there are if any. It's not life or death but there are no other better DPS-boosting cross-class abilites.

T6: Middle Bulb, Bees. Additional DPS/Burst to finish them off and look good on your meter.
Times you will use MS ranges from 1 - 2

T7: First Add, Third Add, First Archer, Possibly Fourth Archer if your raid is meh, Final Add if your raid is good and you only have LB2 or your raid decides to just save the LB for Melusine, Melusine X1 or X2 depending on your raid.
Times you will use MS ranges from 5 - 7

T8: Every Dreadnaught, Punching bag once or twice depending on your raid.
Times you will use MS ranges from 3 - 5

T9: Every Golem Phase, Ghost if you are on Ghost duty, Nael at least twice.
Times you will use MS ranges from 4 - 6

As far as I recommend, remove foresight since most of the aoe skills that will hit you are magic and increase defense does nothing against them and use Mercy Stroke.

MS, 2nd Wind, IR, Bloodbath, Mantra are my current 5 X class

Thank you! Very informative, and I'm already close to getting MS.

not at the moment... I think DRG X-skills are fine atm don't think we need any from nin actually.

[dippindots326]

Not sure, I doubt they'll mess with the extant jobs until the expansion. If we do get ROG stills I wouldn't mind Perfect Dodge or Goad!
