I play both SMN and BST, while there's been a few comments thrown at SMN, I'd like to say, that SMN is tied with having the worst DEF in the game. But that being said, Even though BST is a Front-line DD, they are in a separate field of other jobs and have to maintain their pets with much higher difficulty of the 3 true pet jobs (DRG doesn't count, I'm sorry.) The only one that has it close to BST is PUP, but they have multiple things they can do to recover their pet much faster than a BST can. If they're going to go ahead with this change then either Call Beast or Bestial Loyalty needs to have it's timer reduced GREATLY, in fact it should be the same time as 'Deus Ex Automata'. And BST should also get the Max HP Bonus Trait, which is extremely fitting for those that are Tamers of Wild Beasts, and the DEF Bonus up to Tier III. But that's just my humble opinion.
