Everyone will want to try those new ones, at least when they are out and when it was not really a probleme with HW cause one of each, we'll end up with huge queue times oO

as a dedicated DPS, I have no problem with it.

Selfish answer, as most "pure" DPSs.

More correctly, we have 3 tanks, 3 healers and 7 DPS. The actual role distribution among the playerbase used to be around 19/19/62 (Eorzea Census 2015) and now sits around 21/23/56 or so (http://ff14net.2chblog.jp/archives/50236197.html). That doesn't say anything about who plays what actively however, that's just who has jobs leveled (31-60) and the full 60 distribution is 23/23/54.

That said, I would rather get rid of roles entirely. Failing that, more content that is role independent. It isn't even hard to create that - simply scratch unavoidable damage from the equation and put actual mechanics instead. Then we can stop worrying about quotas and make jobs based on their fantasy - which sometimes will be more on the damaging, sometimes more on the tanky or support side. Whatever.
