And when you figure that WAR/DRK/DRG/SAM aren't exactly solo powerhouses like the 1hander jobs, it's a fundamentally broken situation.
The 2hander jobs, excepting rune fencer which is fine, really only bring damage to the table. Blue mage, for instance, can do high damage. It can nuke. It can AoE cleave. It can solo high-tier battlefields. It can farm. BLU has benefited from many incremental buffs but it has grown out of control with the latest AoE nukes, Mighty Guard, and the strength of Chante du Cygne. CDC needs a substantial nerf, at least 30%, and BLU AoE spells should scale with number of targets. Dancer is nearly as broken, better raw melee damage compared to blue mage, but it lacks the cleaving utility.
