    first off, i by no means feel MP conservation has anything to do with fun strategy (what i think SE feels IS fun. i 100% disagree).
    Melees have a reduction in TP generation but only have to use TP once out of three WS allowing them to spam damage much more than THM... therefor, i feel having to worry THAT much about MP consumption forces you to eventually stand around while melees can take advantage of getting free Weapon skills.

    A jack of all trades WHM... what is this 1989?

    The unfortunate truth is melee is always better in fights than casters, simply because of MP vs the ability to hit without using mana. In a long fight that is.

    Hopefully 1.20a we'll get something to help us.

    this is not true in most other MMOs.
    this is very very true in FFXI (as far as right before abbyssea) and apparently still true in FFXIV.
    i want to be a nuker in endgame and boss fights. gee thanks SE.
