Time to upgrade DNC!

DNC doesn't compete for minimal buff situations, because it's can't possibly compete with the juggernaut that is bluemage in those situations.

DPS is the last thing DNC needs, it needs to be better at supporting.

I believe your opinion and point of view are understood, as in your prior comments tend to repeat what your initial response stated in more detail; others have since stated their opinion in response to yours... I shall do the same--I feel that DNC is in a fine spot. Any job can perform within the current game meta as well as any other--tweaks and fine tunes to current abilities and traits will also lead to a more solid game play experience for said job...regardless of job... DNC speaks for itself in what it can bring both in solo play as well as in group oriented content even--and yes, even in today's Ambuscade and Dynamis-D environments. So any new players reading these forums I would suggest the take-away is this: Should you feel the need to level DNC because it appeals to you, DO SO. Just know that there is NO job in FFXI that can DO everything; even as powerful as BLU is, it isn't ideal in every single situation--same goes for PLD, COR, BRD, BST, SMN etc.

So if pro-players who devote their time to DNC see a need to tweak the job or request some slight adjustments to smooth game play out... I applaud and encourage it. I hope SE is listening.
