Some may be more assigned to a heavy damage role on the main fight. Ones like myself are assigned to a more rear guard type position. To control the presence of additional monsters on the field, locking them down till the sentinel is able to control them so the casters dont snag agro. Givin all we can do the job is extremely versatile and I belive strongly that's the direction we are going to continue as.
I started spazzing out when I saw your post. Looks like you play Lancer just like I do. It is exactly what I though they were supposed to be when I first saw the description on the FFXIV website a long time ago. I love knowing that I'm responsible for any stray monsters that may come up and try to eat a mage. The versatility is really nice, I like doing a job that keeps me on my toes.
