By that extend I can say spamming WF with a staff on Qilin doesn't matter cuz I can still kill the NM without the COR, and ally can still kill it without a problem. And to extend it even more, I can say that any job without gear swapping doesn't matter, because I can still kill X and Y or Z with those players not gear swapping on all jobs.

Honestly though, unless that person doesn't have proper dagger skill/gear, I can never understand the logic to spend more gil and deal less dmg.
