Another thing I’m a bit annoyed with : I always thought SMN lacked spammable AOE (even at high MP cost I’d take it) and had to rely too much on CD abilities (a tank doing packs of 2 becoming infuriating).

I thought ruin 4 would be an AOE type, to do something outside of transe, and balance the gameplay between transe and out of transe. So that we wouldn’t pressure tanks and healers, to reduce possible friction in dungeons.

But they went the opposite way ! Focus in transe bursts even more and nerf AOE. Guess what ? I absolutely don’t wanna take a Bahamut out, only available every 2 mins, for 2 useless trashmobs ! But what other choice will we have ?
His attack is around 680 potency, and can be used twice in one summon, you should be taking him out as much as possible to begin with, even more so on single target.
