The problem as always is that half of you use "useful" as a synonym to "best". As in, all jobs are useless, except WAR+NIN+WHM because they can cover red!

A job is fine in my eyes if it gets to use its abilities. BST for example is not fine, because it doesn't get to charm. It is by no means terrible, but it isn't fine. Same with SMN that has near zero purpose to use wards or spirits. Just predator claws all day long. (Slight exaggeration). I'd actually rate RDM and DRK as jobs in need of updates as well, since RDMs are not meleeing much and DRKs aren't casting many spells.

RNG, COR and such I'd not really say have any problems. Costs gil, hard to buy ammo, doesn't do best damage, is about all negatives you can find. Nothing about the actual job is bad, just lacking gear.

I wish SE had the same focus, on fixing the things we do not use. But sadly SE is always working on adding something new (that we may or may not use). Even when it sounds like they are listening (They say they work on adding new avatars which can be kept out longer) they end up programming something completely different (2 hour avatars).

I'd love to see some actual feedback from SE though. It always seems like they avoid all threads related to job issues. I'd agree with them if there were only people here saying they wanted to be stronger, but when people complain on bad puppet spell selection, bugged spirits, lack of charm use, it isn't because we want to deal 9999 damage, it is because we want to use our abilities and spells.
