Either SMN and RDM should lose their Raise or BLM should get a Raise.

To be fair he thinks about progression level play where you need raise the most, though you are not wrong that they could make BLM to be better in the meta by making caster meta viable.

I don't agree with the I don't want to be forced play X job during prog so that I can play my main afterward though. I think that the goal of the party enter into play there, if you aim for wf you are going to do whatever will garantees better chances to get a good position which means beign ready to change your job to better suit your strategy.

Exactly. This why I think RDM has a very unfortunate niche; we are all heavily reliant on resurrection to progress more quickly and efficiently, and our need for it drops off after progression is over. I don’t think rez on magical DPS should ever have been allowed to become something other than an occasional bonus, and now it’s close to being viewed as mandatory for prog.

Back in the day SMN often beat out BLM in prog popularity, but it was about much more than the backup rez. You know rez is overvalued when RDM has few advantages over its peers and is still a top pick, at least during prog.
