    And shouldn't WHM be the only magic job with MP management issues since they don't have any decent form of MP recovery, SMN/SCH have Aetherflow and Energy Drain, and BLM have Umbral Ice, WHM only have Shroud of Saints, which everyone agrees sucks.
    I have zero MP management problems with my WHM (5k MP might help though), and shroud, if used well, is a very good tool.

    On the other hand, SMN are forced to reduce their DPS if they want to maintain their MP, by using more Energy drain than they'd want in detriment of bane (AoE) or Fester (solo). If they don't, they're MP starved in around 4/5 minutes and can't do anything after that.

    I rarely use Energy Drain, only in those rare instances that I actually need it, But a higher MP pool could help. I think mine is around 4k or so, since Summoners do actually have the lowest overall MP of the magic classes, ironically.
