    My "logic" so to speak, had nothing to do with BLM/SMN, so let's throw that out right away. I'm simply saying that no matter what argument can be made, medium to large pulls are NOT a standard for tanking. Perhaps they're good - excuse me - efficient for BLMs or SMNs, but not everyone plays those classes. And not every BLM/SMN might agree, but I can't speak for them. I'm not a caster. I get it: if things can be done faster, then to NOT do it is not efficient. Is that it? That's a solid point, but it's not always right.

    I can make a pre-made and "tank" Lost City as a Bard (obviously well geared and with a good team/healer), and in doing so not have to wait as long as DPS normally does. But is that necessarily efficient? Sure, wildly different scenario, but stripping my previous point down to the core, is the time I save to get in by making a pre-made of 3 DPS and 1 healer efficient?

    This is why I'm coming off as rude, I apologize for that, but i'm referring to specifically maximizing the party, in this case with a blm/smn. So to ignore them is to ignore the argument. Try lvling one up one day, not even to be a master at it just to get a better understanding of the job and how it works.

    I'm not joking, this is what I'm getting from you Urielparadox.
    God I hate reply to trolls who don't read. nope, in fact I specifically stated several times it's about party efficiency. I know my single target rotation since you know I have to use it all day long in 90% of this content, the only time I really get to be a blm is turn 4 and dungeons, hince why i'm I'm training up on smn, however like I as l stated, once the buffs to blm single target come in I won't have as much an issue with this. In regards to me personally if I want an SR i'll put up a pf for it or get friends. All of which I have said already. If our single target rotation wasn't pathetic for damage compared to everyone else then we wouldn't be getting a buff. in the end I don;t really care if i'm doing single target rotation or multitarget, what matters is making use of the party make up.
