Important Question to Devs about the Limit Break Change

[Kallera]

Isn't it making party setup easier by allowing for doubles of a particular role?

as long as you aren't doing 3 ranged dps or 3 melee dps for your static, this is actually an improvement. Before you would get a LB fill penalty for just having two of the same class in your party, now you just need to balance your roles without worry about class distribution.

See, but it's not. If anything this creates less-diverse team compositions. The new method literally states, 2 Ranged, 2 Melee, 2 Tank, 2 Healer, no exceptions. BRD/MCH currently is necessary to all parties, why does having double Caster penalize you for that?

I've seen people say this a few times, but that's not how I read the patch notes. I read that only for duties that are queue-able solo would no longer get the double class penalty. This means that anything that requires a preformed party (including alex savage) will still get the lb penalty for doubling up on classes. And now IN ADDITION things in duty finder which require a preformed party will get a penalty for tripling up on roles. The only thing up for debate is whether alex savage counts for the triple-role penalty, but it definitely still does for the double.
