That warrior also probably spent much more gil on melds than the BRD did too, if we're going to get into the "balance" aspect, lets cover all bases. Hell chances are that BRD was in full AF too.

That's just a poor argument and unrelated to having to spend gil to use your normal abilities. Any class can spend a ton of gil on melds.

Pointless debate there guys.

You're being stubborn and trying way hard at the devil's advocate game Elexia.

Classes with consumable ammo are an issue when it comes to balance. It costs gil to use them at all levels of play. Plain and simple.

and maddening potion is for everyone? how about certain foods? I'm sure warriors really get a major benefit from taking ethers. Your logic still does not compute.

Archers need arrows to simply function.

No class needs any pots or food to function. Foods and pots enhance them. They can and are also used by ARCs.

Sure, warriors will be using maddening potions, but DDs will be using str/attack potions and mages will be using MP/m.accuracy/attack magic foods and pots.

Its like I said, everyone the game can use food and potions
A tank may use a maddening potion, while a melee would use a Mega-potion of Strength. Mages may use ethers, while non mp classes can use hp potions.

Fact: The archer spent gil to kill monsters

Assumption: The warrior spent more in materia melds

Assumption: The Warrior didn't pop food that he spent gil on.

Fact: Both the BRD and WAR have that option, BRD doesn't have the option not to use arrows.

Your point? When they add Musketeer, I would fully expect the job to require ammunition, a gun is pretty much useless without bullets, and even energy weapons would need an energy source. Your argument might actually have merit if the game locked the player into one job or role, since it doesn't, your argument is invalid. (Case in point, despite my sig, I am a main job Brd, and i've never felt like my job was harder or more expensive than say a mnk or pld, which I also play.)
