1.0 Dungeons?

Oh you mean those things I ran through on WAR without stopping until I hit a Boss?

Edit: Also, pls buff 2.4 dungeons by A LOT.

... on top of which, there are no true controllers (role, not electronic device) in the game except possibly black mage. Without giving players more options for strategically dealing with more powerful monsters, the only source of difficulty is boosting monster hp and damage. They can't increase monster stats in low level dungeons due to item level limitations. They'd end up overpowering the players and it wouldn't add anything interesting to combat. Or it would make black mage or white mage a requirement, due to them being the only jobs with any available crowd control.
