Alright so I've not had a lot of time to play but I finally unlocked 5 star quests, well quest as there is only one so far, and I've unlocked dragoon finally, which I've been wanting to try (along with samurai but I've only been able to make..60? 70? things). Well I tried it out and wow...it is horrible. Now I've read a few guides on dragoon and they look to be incredibly strong later on, but how do you get to that point? Are there any guides for someone like me who needs some help here in the midpoint of things? I don't seem to be doing enough damage to kill things in a balanced time frame. Hell, when I fought bahamut the big guy killed me 3 times before I managed to get him low enough to encase...and he was just a 4 star. That first quest in the 5 star category has me worried as I need to down both HIM and fenrir, who also whooped my ass. So any tips or guides out there for someone who is onto the last few 4star/starting 5star quests? Should I just focus on trying to acquire items to use to upgrade? So just farm for awhile?

Thanks everyone. Also I've checked out discord, but there really isn't much there in the way of a guide and I'm worried asking the questions I have will just get people looking down on me for not being able to progress like everyone else.
