(Might want to add that this is a little bit spoiler-ey)

Anyways, I'm not overly impressed. This is a part where basically the boss becomes a complete pushover. I have no idea how everyone else died but in that last percentage he's basically completely freaked out by "What" you are and doesn't do mechanics anymore. <_<

Yep, no one's going to want them for Alexander.

Your isolated example doesn't mean it isn't happening elsewhere or on other servers. Not saying it's happening at large, but it is happening about.

I just opened my PF & 7/8 groups exclude a BRD/MCH from the makeup altogether.

I just opened my PF.

Shiva-EX: All roles for DPS
Bismark-EX "Clear before Maintenence", lead by a bard who is disincluding Bard/Mechanists. Probably because you only need 1 support-class per party.
a static looking for a BRD/MCH to 'fill out their roster.'
Another static that is looking for any DPS, but is full on BRD/MCH (stated in PF)
Ravana-EX PF Where all DPS spots are available, none disincluded.

So at least as far as Balmung's concerned, we still know the weight of a good support in a party, farm or no.

LOL that DRK uses unmend and unleash on a single target boss fight?

4K+ MP and he doesn't know how to Blood Weapon => Dark Arts => Souleater? D:

I'm guessing he's using unmend because lack of TP, not sure why he used unleashed though.

I want to note that Souleater does not recover HP with grit turned off, so he wouldn't be able to use blood weapon without dieing.

Uh - you play on my server and I've yet to see any PF groups excluding bards and machinists...I think you've over-exaggerating this a little considering you've made at least 3 threads about machinist, yet you don't even have the job unlocked according to your character data on the Lodestone? If you're a good player, you will be able to find a group regardless of chosen class.
