So essentially, what one job loses out for solo-play (DPS), they gain in team-play (team roles). That's just my opinion.
lol what? I will uninstall this game the moment a BLM outdamages me (BRD) on raid content. I've never been outdamaged by any job other than MNK, and BLM is very far behind. The buff should close the gap some, but there is a reason they are getting buffed...
