Really? I never had an issue in 1.x with class stacking or leaving out other jobs..or balance. Like I said, I've cleared everything with one of each job in 1.x easily..from sr5c, to skirmish, to Garuda HM/extreme to Ifrit HM/extreme for relic. And if need be I can dig up videos of this. Just because everyone flocks to one set up does NOT mean its the only way. Quite a lot of JP also used one of each job in 1.x. I had 0 issues with job balance in 1.x.

Anyway, XIV has plenty of balance issues and job issues right now. Everything feels like a DPS that can do something else. I see people refusing to bring certain tank classes to content. Also I remember in 2.x when farming for relic the PF would require only BLM/BRD..and spam Brayflox over and over and over...meanwhile, my friends and I did it easily and faster with other jobs.

No one here is asking for a carbon copy of FFXI with its flaws, I am so tired of seeing this hyperbole. That is silly. From what I've seen folks in here asking they want more interesting content, interesting stats/abilities perhaps, and better rewards with LONGEVITY. Others would like to good systems and fun parts of XI brought to the game. Where are you getting it from where people are saying they want Job imbalance? Lol and anyway EVERY game has that..and at this point I rather deal with some (XIV is already dealing with quite a LOT of that) then a flat, dull system.

Again, why is it acceptable to mention and demand things from WoW, but when wanting a FEW FUN THINGS FROM FFXI...well..then its pitchfork time lol.

And the fact of how people cannot play their job in XIV...well, that is is any MMORPG I have played and I have played quite a lot. In Aion, FFXI, Ether Saga, RO, Lineage II, all these games I've played I have come across really , really bad players...just because they cannot grasp the game does not mean it has to be dumbed down to the point an ape can do it...and tbqh, that is how simple FFXIV feels to me atm. The rotation is always the same..no depth...

The content rewards are always glamour, minons or some fluff content...not ONCE in my entire time of playing FFXIV did I ever stop and say.."OMG GUYS LOOK AT THIS GUY!!! They have such and such armor/weapon. I AM SO JEALOUS AHHH!!" because nothing is an accomplishment, everyone gets a gold star. Well, I lie..in 1.x I said that about relic weapons before finishing mine lol....shoot, I remember a point where even seeing Garuda weapons was impressive. So yeah...lets stop with the FFXI hate, and saying people wearing those weird glasses or whatever. It has its good points and nothing is ever going to change my mind from that or from suggesting it.
