Ranged DPS dominating Slaughter Mode

Learn to use position to your advantage.

i already explained to you why this isn't a realistic expectation but you conveniently responded to every post but mine.
let me redirect you

it's really easy to tell melee to position themselves in ways that would benefit them, but it's another thing entirely to actually do this as a melee dps going against 20 casters.

the only alternative to not engaging a group of casters is to sit and do nothing at all. and in that case, melee is pretty much useless.

does a melee have an advantage against a black mage in pvp? yes, probably. does a single melee have an advantage against 10+ black mages grouped together? no way. you'll need at least a few more melee with you in order to be efficient. however, this wont happen, because by now people have seen that being a caster is just easier in huge 72-man battles like this because they can sit back and cast and they have a limit break that does a ridiculous amount of damage for the amount of space it covers.

and anyway, based on the fact that you only have white mage leveled and that you think PLDs have an attack that can hit for 4k it's pretty obvious you have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to how any other job actually plays in pvp.
