When to stop subbing drg?

Re: When to stop subbing drg?

Itazura, War doesn't get Defender 'til 25 -- same level as Double Attack. So your 40-49 era is slightly inaccurate.

Oppsie. Thanks for catching that.

also to Lyonheart, avesta is prob one of the best if not the best rdm around, his skill is freaking awsome, but not any rdm can do what he does, and thats why it makes him the best, so yes, skill behind the character makes a diff, i know mnk/smn wouldnt make the same amount of dmg as /war or /drg but a good player could make mnk/smn into something incredible, what would that be, lol i dont know but impretty sure some one some where has done it and came up with the dos and dont with that sub. lol, is all about fun.

Err but you're a Monk. You punch stuff. At least in a pure DD role, skill won't be doing much for you. Admittedly, /drg is something that requires more attention from you than /war since you need to make sure you Jump every chance you get. But it's still rather simplistic. Oh, and a good /war player is always keeping an eye on resources, looking to see if there's a time where he should be provoking. You don't have that outlet for player skill to shine, so I guess the 2 subs come back to equality.

Anyway, Skill doesn't mean much in a party of 6 where the absolute bottom line is how much damage you dealt. I think that's what Lyonheart was getting at. In those regards, player skill really doesn't account for much (moreso for a Monk than any other melee job excepting maybe Warrior).
