Good news.
Improving Wheeling Thrust^^ There is hope. A ranged attack will be nice too. BTW, where are you getting this information from?

FYI, DRK's have the lowest def in the game. Its a celebrated fact that even SE admits too. So that settles that problem.

And while all this news is very good (if you saw the supposedly fake list of all the job enhancements they were doing you;d laugh.), they should up the damage of ALL DRG ws's, not just a single one. But still, this is good news if true

I grabbed the information from the PlayOnline Viewer Announcements.

I am interested with the throwing weapons.
I think Square might be on to a winner here.
I mean there is a lot of potential.
For example they could make the delay of the throws fairly short and also make it accumilate generous TP, say 10-15 per hit?
So the attacks themselves wouldn't necessarily need to be powerful but more of a method for us to gain TP fast.
We could Penta spam once again!

Who knows. ^^

TP gained per hit is determined by delasy of the weapon you hit with, so a low delay, high TP gaining weapon would kinda be contradictory.

I think it might mean the things like bomb core and items like that for the throwing thing >.> Also in CoP there might be Drg specific throwing items, or maybe items for our wyverns like bsts get that pet food stuff, probably not but it's possible it could be...

Also, correct if I'm wrong here but if the improvment to Wheeling Thrust brought it close or level with Gullotine would that not make Drg/Thf for SaTa >> Wheeling Thrust useful?

SATA Guillotine is horrible.

It's only redeeming factors are 1) It starts fragmentation for WARs and RNGs 2) It's the first non-shitty WS for DRK.

Improving Wheeling Thrust to Guillotine level isn't doing very much improving when every other job is doing 700-1k+ damage.

At first I thought drgs throwing stuff was kinda odd, but I remembered (for those who play the other Final Fantasies) that Freya had this one skill where she jumped into the air and threw spears down at the enemy....... '~'

i have screen shots for penta thrust do 1700 damage but not in exp pt

im talking about exp pts at lv 60 and yes you know i dont do that damage everytime but most of the time guillotine damage around 600~ for me and thats not " horrible " (sometimes 800~ and sometimes 400~ im not best drk and not bad and yes i saw higher damage guillotine than mine and who care about guillotine
""cross reaper/spinning slash""


its good news to see they did some improvment for wheeling thrust but what about impluse drive

wheeling thrust >> spinning slash light i will invite drgs if wheeling thrust damage was strong

LMAO!

Okay yes I just realised that the Low Delay + High TP gain was a complete contradiction. ; ;

But I had a new idea:
They make these throwing weapons an entirely new type of weapon. And we are able to have NEW Weapon Skills from them so therefore opening a whole new library of SCs the DRG is able to participate in.
Wouldn't that rock?

But okay going crazy and wishing for the best, this is what I want to see for DRG:
The ability to breed and grow our Wyverns.
We can fuse them with different items and things and make them even more powerful and better looking.
Also be able to equip them with armor and weapons.
And actually make "Call Wyvern" a 30 minute refresh ability and make our 2hr "Dragon Fusion" which allows us to fuse with our Wyvern for 30 seconds turning us into a dragon and have an auto "Hundred Fists" so we are attacking nonstop, and once our TP goes to 100%+ we are able to do different types of Breath Attacks that we make our Wyvern learn when breeding it.
Holy **** that would be uber.
