I concur.
It is pretty ridiculous.

Now Imagine if they had a Ranged DPS Rotation. Tanks would literally be: "Im the Main DPS, and you're all MY Support"

At least balance had a reason to be terrible in HW when every job was more unique, the fact that balance is still so far off when they're reworking jobs to play similarly and work within the 2 minute meta is just sad.

WAR goes brrrrr

So I'll be the only one to say it,

I love new summoner, hated the old one and stopped playing it after Heavensward. It was so bloated and felt very unfulfilling to me like MCH on launch. I've been maining SMN most of this post-patch expansion and having a blast. Sad it was nerfed, but it's still very fun and user friendly.

I really enjoy AST as well. I like that they got rid all the niche-use only cards and adjusted the class around the gameplay I saw the majority of AST playing (fishing for balance). I do think it's lost some identity with the loss of diurnal / nocturnal (regen / buff), but it is what it is. I would like to see them adjust the story for the use of cards now though - if they have and I missed it please let me know!

Really enjoying warrior my main tank. I love my toolkit and the fact I feel like I have some of my destiny in my own hands (healer died? that's ok I've got a ton of skills to carry me through!).

In general, I think most of the oversimplified jobs were oversimplified to be re-complicated with the next coming expansions.

In terms of damage, I don't play enough difficult content to notice. Overall, I'm having fun. I'm really excited for 7.0's new jobs and current job additions! ^^b

I'll just say it again, that's what Machinist players thought back in Shadowbringers when their job got simplified to hell. The idea that "CBU3 will totally add the job complexity back in with the next expansion, guys" is pure copium.

Copium or not, I don't care if it's complicated again - it was just a guess lol.

I love the job as it is. I hope they add some more summons, and if not, I'm fine with a few more skills next expansion ^^b

The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.

Eh it's an auto generated job list from a 3rd party website I've had for 5+ years since there's no official FFXIV job signature generator

It got wonky when BLU was added. I think it gets coded as "max level" that it can be and just assumes that's lvl 90 like everything else.
