    If you want to talk about Balance then let's look at Warrior getting an ability to change weapon damage type, allowing them to get an increase of as much as 25% damage dealt against a lot of monsters - SE thinks this is fine.

    But a 5 minute dispel as a separate ability and not linked to steal is overpowered.

    About cor vs brd: songs don't have a long shared recast timer. Things are very different.

    Any good sam has always been able to out-DD a blu outside of Abyssea. As for inside Abyssea - well, then my sam cries, it never sees any action due to lack of red procs and crit ws. The new JA hasn't changed anything, my Masamune and my sam gear is still collecting dust for the most part.

    As for whm - fully merited ShellraV beats ShellV, and I can't see why you'd merit anything else in that category instead of ShellraV. Whm barspells with merits, and toss in full af3 +2 = win. Whm cure potency = win. As for CureVI, please don't argue that it's useless outside Abyssea. If it is, then use CureV. Because it sure as hell isn't useless inside Abyssea, which is still where a large chunk of this game takes place for most people.

    I'm really not sure what you are complaining about to be honest.

    Lets just give SMN the PLD's 2hr ability for the whole pt and call it a day, you can just make it an avatar like odin and say it's alex's cousin.
    Perfect Defense says hi. Pretty much Invincible right there. In fact, it's even better because it works against all damage, not just physical damage.

    Its not about sam or blu doing more dmg. What I found bs was that almace blu getting out dmg by a full pearl sam. Though he didn't say if the sam had madamune or not. If you have a really good sam and blu the sam should win in pure damage. Really though even if they are outside of abyssea thats fine they should since thats most of what sam has going for them.

    recast of roll is not a problem...
    Its rare to change song mid-fight. Usually u stack on song duration item, so u can do other duty.

    I'm almost absolutely positive that a perle SAM will beat an Almace BLU outside of abyssea. Sure, the BLU will be able to a spike damage (though you have to factor in the loss of critical rate, and thus Almace not doing nearly as much as it can in abyssea) but, it surely won't beat a skillchain spamming SAM, which is irrelevant to whether its in abyssea or not. There's a reason BLU can cure itself and SAM can't.

    BRD is most likely getting a 3rd tier of march, has Elegy and is far more reliable in putting up buffs.

    Did I also mention BRD is also the superior refresher?

    really they would be using a 6 hit at best with old one hit WS and SSC are far from reliable. If a postion were you you would be SPAMing SCs chances are your not the only one so GL getting SSC off before some one breaks it. Then you take into account that if tyhey are meleeing the mob they are weak and poss little threat so Blus dd spells would do just as well as some gimps WSs.

    At best they might have 6hit assuming rajas and other easy and simple to get items even then thats assuming a lot. With thier best weapons being emp. while I have seen it doesn't mean ever gimp has one so next in line would be the tp +100 or stp GK still hard to believe they would invest in that before af3. Next in line of easy is a decent Dom GK and more likey for gimps to get a hold of.

    After 75 levels of sam, blu the old way back in the day, merit parties and any other mobs you have more then one DD on at a time or Tank WSing SSCs are a crap shoot at best.

    Why would a SAM be using a 6-hit "at best" when a 5-hit is so readily attainable in this day and age?

    Dear SE,

    I want you I should think than before you do so, ask your that! Don't answer second (or third for that much matter, but instead listen. Even if it doesn't,) please reasonably do so. For that much less, they say that, but don't mean it! So how could you not? That only makes sense, right?

    Thx for your intention about this.
