Machinist needs serious attention

I would gladly take being wrong with a smile on my face. If there is some secret to the jobs I am not aware of, I would sure like SE to come in and say something. I am ilvl179 on MCH and can hold my own decently enough. I will say though, do not take multiple MCH or BRD if you are trying to do a DPS check fight like Bismark EX. Even though I believe I have the job down very well, I just can't see this being the intent of how they are suppose to be played, we just found a work around with it. It is understandable that they most definitely should not be top DPS at all and should be on the lower end. Not to the point however that tanks in DPS stances can catch up to us. At that point, it becomes ridiculous.

I've heard the same thing about the DPS checks with more than 1 BRD or MCH. People just can't meet them. I'd like to hear if other people are experiencing this, because maybe it's just a bad party setup, but I feel like with all the number crunching... it's b/c MCH and BRD were dealt an incredibly unfair and weak hand.

Last boss, Aery.

Two bards. Granted, I think both were pretty poor players, but considering the fails on the group(not killing Price so we'd lose one of them, adds not dying fast enough so we'd get hit by the enrage) and the fact that I've done that same fight with other dps that were just as bad of players(one bard wasn't using dots, the other sat in MW the ENTIRE RUN) and still killed it...

Yeah.

And once I got past 50, my runs have had fewer and fewer MCH in them. Which is sad. That was the job I was hoping to level next. I don't like what they did to my bard.
