Why does SE withhold support for subbing mage to DRG through gear? There are three reasons I ask this question.
1) There is a consistent agreement amongst players that DRG's gear selection is highly limited on all fronts.
2) DRG functions uniquely from all other jobs in how the main job is affected by its sub, primarily through the wyvern.
3) Other jobs without MP are supported via equipment when using a mage sub. Examples include PUP and COR--who have multiple choices in regular equipment prior to incorporation of their AF--to BRD and BST--who have no MP of their own, but are so accepted with a mage sub that JSE supports that.
It must be said that DRG is not entirely without equipment to boost MND, INT, MP, and wyvern HP. Yet these options are generic at best. They are merely a token to "All Jobs." DRG's potential exceeds that of other non-MP jobs and is on the verge of actual party utility and full solo viability. At a time where the game is being modified to sidestep supposed exploitation and encourage original thinking and tactics, one would think this a great time to expand our options within the existing framework.
