the 2016 Frontline tier list

[Houston009]

I was more referring to the bards heavier use of bloodletter procs and having both a knockback and a jumpback, this is based off 50 den over 60 though, mind you

Understood. From 50 -> 60 their mobility flips.

Ah 72 fair enough, mnk tbh lowest of the list. Whilst capable of decent burst and the ability to shut down smns/remove attunement there overall tool kit is lacking.

1 gap closer, one stun, weapon throw. If a target manages to break free of monks grip and all of these are on CD its a very easy escape.

Stunlocking is still a thing even in 72, not to mention cover etc. Pld and drk defo need to switch.

Mr CC blm is a still a valuable asset offering freeze, sleep, heavy and high survivability. Blms value only starts to diminish when you have stupid people who randomly attack targets with aa for 10 dmg. Looking at you brd.

Blm has insane dmg capabilities, if left unattended.

S tier
Ast, Sch, Smn, Nin, Drg, War

A+ tier
Whm, Mch, Drk

A tier
Brd, Mnk, Blm, Pld

Come to Aether, you'll find players that would actually put the 4 jobs you put in the A tier into the S tier, too.

To be honest, this list would be more accurate (but still not 100% accurate) if you renamed it to "Difficulty to play, easiest to hardest." I'm not suggesting that your S tier jobs are noob jobs, but for example, I think Summoner is a job in FL that is easier to play for newer players in PvP, but there is still a high skill-cap to the job that makes good Summoners stand out. On the other hand, your A tier Black Mage is an extremely powerful job if played in the right hands, but is generally much more difficult to play correctly.

Monks also have 3 ways of regaining tp, once all those are exhausted they have fist it the wind which is a passive stance to increases movements speed so outrunning a monk that know what he is doing just isn't going to happen my friend.

You would haven to make a tier list for each job type. PLD, DRK, and WAR all function completely different than WHM, AST, and SCH and should be in no way compared to them in the same list.
