They had an entire expansion to do that. So I'd like my options increased instead of being on the short end of the stick for a second expansion in a row.Quote:

*bangs pots and pans together loudly*
Let us have Dancer!!
But in all honesty, if we don't get a new healer and/or tank in 5.0, I'd be surprised. Disappointed as well, but mostly surprised. -

What else did you want to add? Two more DPS jobs, again?
But what would happen then? I bet a lot of Healer and Tank mains will shift to DPS if they were left out again and the queue times would be even worse.
Balanced or not, they had Stormblood to figure something out, that's one of the reasons we didn't get a new tank or healer, they can't use the same excuse again because that means that they did jack to balance it in Stormblood. -
11-14-2018, 08:39 AMNanaWilohNo such thing as promises in game development. Developers only talk about what they want and would like to do with a game as promises are like advertisements it backs them into a corner.Quote:

Absolutely not. Seeing as there should be as many tanks as healers and tanks+healers should be as close to the number of DPS as possible, we absolutely need more tanks and healers.
Also, argument that "it's for the balance" is just plain stupid. What's the point of balancing the classes at lvl70 if they will no longer be balanced at lvl80?! To balance the classes they'd need to not bring any LEVELS, not jobs. It's impossible to properly balance the classes at the new level cap without the game going live for several months. And just about the entire two years with the way they decide to release content that is actually needed to gather data on the jobs balance. So there's NEVER going to be a time to add new healers/tanks...
And as was said before, DPS are more broken than tanks/healers. If any group shouldn't get a new representative for balance, it's the DPS.
That's convenient omission...Quote:

Don't compare sub-categories to categories. It's a tree. The tree is divided into three which are then further divided...but only DPS have any variety altogether.
Blue Mage would be more "hype" than Gunblade. Along with healer it's the most asked for class. It would also be the first "mage" tank, and it'd allow "<Color> Mage" to fill every spot in a party.Quote:
