You can do shouts without geo and whm. Bst perform better with cor and geo buffs though, but if you need a healer you can do it with rdm, sch, anything that cures. It is people not being more willing to try different setups that people complain about.
I agree. You do not even need two geo for SR. We did it tonight with just one, and it was np. There is many ways and setups to doing SR, and I agree multiple geo are not necessary.
You can easily replace the whm with another job that cures like I mentioned, and your group might not need a curer and you can bring something else if you want like a second cor. You can take brd instead of geo as well. Most the shouts that want geo though are ones that have bst in setup. Brd does not work good for bst buffs, and geo and cor are very wanted for bst setup. I have heard a lot of people who have brd geared and leveled complain about not being wanted anymore for runs because of this. Just depends on the setup, and the person leading the run.
Not every shout on Asura is for bst. Of course you do not need bst for VW, skirmish etc. But if you watch shouts there is rarely a SR shout, or Escha shout (especially RuAun) that does not ask for bst, and I hear the complaints about it all the time. It is just the player base and perspective as mentioned in other posts. It sucks for those that do not have pet jobs leveled to join any of that content atm, and that might not have groups to go with but on the other hand this has always been a issue anytime a job gets a boost. Look at all the jobs not being used anymore like war, drk, etc. I know people who made mythic war and they never use them anymore. A lot of people have been left out and had to adjust to the times of the game.
