No. You're right, there is no more room to talk of overpoweredness of BST. I think we've been satisfied, long enough, about being able to solo things and been content with our own feelings of overpoweredness. I've seen a WHM and a WAR duo Chloris. Hell, I know a WHM and a THF have duoed Pantokrator.
I'm tired of our job being one that is talked about, not in terms of power, but in terms of inefficiency and inconvenience.
"Oh. Yeah, BST can solo stuff now in Abyssea. But they can't proc anything."
"BSTs takes up party camps and use up valuable resource to get slow EXP for 1 person instead of fast EXP for 6 people."
"BSTs send their pets at NMs and take up everybody's valuable time pin pricking them down for half an hour."
If the development team behind FFXI now is really committed to bring everybody to the table and job interactivity, I want to see it.
