    If SE really is interested in class balance, they have some serious work to do on lancer if they want to make it into a party-support DD. That at least is a viable concept though--Corsair-class job will work.

    But pugilist and marauder need fundamental overhauls or they need placed at the epitome of damage, hands-down. Right now, there is NO point in wasting a party slot on a marauder or pug in those R50 dungeons if the fights are many and the bosses are as good as we all hope they are.

    They WILL sit in town the second this game gets hard unless something is done. People will start making fun of marauders and pugs just like blms, plds, nins, and rdms made fun of dragoons and thieves when they tried to defend themselves in XI.

    Anyone who argues that an archer is squishy is lying to you. In a party they have the highest functional defense of any of the DDs (they're out of damage range, they take 0 damage), and they kill a mob before getting hit three times. It's just an excuse. Archers are defensive powerhouse, because there are two best defenses: one where you don't even get hit, and ridiculous offense.

    Archers aren't defensively weak. Period. I can Kill two Cursed Eyes at once as a R32 archer. That would likely kill my R40 marauder. Why? Because if it's DEAD it stops ATTACKING.
