BUT I do agree that SMN dps is not as terrible as it seems, just there sustain. Case in point, my Coil static SMN was pulling about 520 on Cerberus until he got killed xP



Its resource management, as has been stated many times before. TP-based DPS get Goad or Paeon. Very rarely will Ballad be played in Coil situations, but one of those 2 TP abilities will always be given.

Except I have zero mp issues in T11. Its not a resource issue, its a our-single-target-sustained-dps is garbage issue

Well, I hardly think this is the place to discuss it, and really its been beaten to death already, but I'll give ya the benefit of the doubt. Out of curiosity, what kind of numbers would you guess a SMN can do on fights such as T10 and T11? I don't get too many chances to compare with decent SMNs.

farming 166 light for each mahatma isn't more work than farming 2k once.

also when they add the books for animus they added 2/3 books for each IG stat, that didnt mean you had to farm all existing books (possibility: each mahatma is tied to a stat and you only need to farm those for the stats on your weapon)

Did I even say anything about how light farm it is done? lel.

Well, throwing back the same argument on why BRD's DPS is on the bottom of the food chain back to the SMNs - you guys have more mobility than your brother BLM and access to Ruin II

I guess it is a trend - when you are given mobility, you have to eat some dent to your DPS potential.
