Drg Or Drk. Wut You Think?

I hereby provide evidence for the loldrgs who claim DRK cannot out damage a DRG, and just to rub it in I thought I would provide it on DRGs "speciality mob".

I would like to add that this comparison is against 2 quality DRGs who had good gear (Arazin turned up in full Aurum and both had Antares Harness

Not only was I consistently outparsing them, my phys attks were also higher 2/3 of the time and with dread spikes up and lvl3 desperate blows I could provide twice the damage on top of that than they could from jumps. Souleater was not used at all as its hardly suitable for a merit PT, so with that in mind that alot more potential damage. In terms of my gear over theres, there was no real difference, my WS gear consistted of Olibanum Sachet, Pallas braces and Wyvern Helm, the DRGs had Alky bracelets and one had Aurum pieces macrod in for his WS.

Lets see any lolDRG's come up with an excuse now. Oh and I realise that a DRG with Drakesbane would comfortably outdamage me for WS, but seeing as Penta Thrust is still supposedly superior to Guillotine on birds, both are multi hit and both have a STR mod, I think this is a very fair test.

Angrykitty is angry.

It's not fun comparing somthing that is average to something that is awesome.
Honestly the better gear you have, and the more knowledge of the game you have, the faster you will get somthing done. I don't want to merit with a DD that doesnt know what a haste setup is, it's boring and slow.

Honestly I would go with the job that has more survivability, drk just seems like a ticking time bomb.

ohi VonKarma

what merits did the dragoons have, were they using food? I See you have food consumed... there's several factors that weigh in how much damage a particular job can do in this game, and SE has pretty much made all damage dealing jobs statistically the same. Your evidence is poor, and everyone's weaponskill damage in your party sucks. Anyone can skew numbers to make their particular job look better than another. Nobody listen to this idiot or anyone that says one particular job is better than another. It's all the same ***. Quit posting dipshit posts, thank you, have a nice day dumbass.

Ignoring all the other crap for a minute... what's Healing Breath?

The idea was to show that without drakesbane the average DRG is not a better DD on birds. you can make all the excuses you want, the DRGs had good gear and were using sole sushi i was using rice dumplings coz im a cheapskate lol. If DRGs are so superior they should be able to outdamage DRK regardless of merits, for the record i have 2 STR merits atm, chances are they had more they looked like more serious players.

How dare you address me in such a manner, you foolish fool! Do you dare face the wrath of my whip?

Yes, /mage. But hey, you said survivability... A good HB build should have you basically back to full HP unless you got hit with something exceptionally nasty at just above your trigger point, which is very high if you have a good max HP set.

For /SAM survivability, I submit High and Super Jump along with Seigan-Third Eye if necessary. DRG isn't going to take hate in a protracted fight and thus can go all-out at all times without fear of taking hate beyond the tank's capacity to recover it.
