Supporter

[Sinaloa]

So in essence you want 1 tank, 1 healer, 1 dps, and 1 support?

Unforatenly because SE decided to go the 4 man dungeon route, a true support class does not work. In a 5 man yes it can, but in a 4 man no (you think dps ques are crazy now, imagine have to reserve a spot for support instead, or will support be classified as dps then groups get screwed over by df by having 2 support classes be placed in so dps is lacking causing more grief and stress on tank and healer since fights must last a lot longer)

No. It would fill a dps. He would buff the rest of the Groups dps enough to make up for the lack of his own. Even higher if he´s good - less if not. Just like any DPS.

So he would buff one person's dps enough to make up for his lack of dps? Because in essence again you have a healer who should not be dpsing, should be focusing on healing and esuna and the likes. You have a tank who's dps really isn't expected to be high because he has to hold threat, and then you have a dps who does the damage, but now your going to put someone there who just raises his dps and makes it harder for the tank to hold threat?


Yes I would love to have real support classes, but it just doesn't work in a 4 man party. Hopefully SE will change this when the new expansion comes out and make it 5 man parties.

IMO eventually most players in the new job will tell everyone they are DPS. ^^;
