SMN needs more utility in FL

[itsoni]

Mobility doesn't matter much unless you're in a small group fighting against 1-4 people (e.g. The Feast). In 72 man, anyone can be a target and the ice objectives are more of a priority now since the score was lowered to 1600 (The 1600-1800 post ice endgame doesn't exist anymore). I play both BLM and SMN in Fields of Glory and nobody bats an eye if I do my leylines+enochian PVE nuke on enemy melee when the ice is up (exception of other BLMs and healers doing sleep/stun).

You don't have a lv60 BLM as far as I can see, looks like you've just started to lv it doing Yokai quests? But if nobody bats an eye while a BLM is doing their PvE rotation then obviously under those circumstances they aren't seen as a threat, or, the opponents aren't too bright. Regardless, SMN has less CC because they have more mobility in their rotation. They did get nerfed a little too much for feast but I know a few SMN's that are still strong threats.

It just comes down to the circumstances at the time.
