Agreed; the only Dragonforged worth fusing right now are the Forsaken Firesheath and the Venomous Vanguard, however their Regular versions are only just slightly better than the Heroic Mode Epics+ (Ancestor's Regalia+ and Overgrown Lifeplate+, respectively).

And yes, leveling up a DF is a painful and expensive process -- especially the last 4-6 levels. While it's expensive to level up an Epic+, there are 6 fewer levels (99 versus 105).
