I wish Gunbreaker would be a DPS class.

No he is saying we do not have enough dps and really do not need a tank or healer. Or perhaps this was someone else. Either way...
So then perhaps since healers are all ranged casters then we need mellee healers? Because we clearly do not have enough of those in that category.

As a dps main for over 5 years in this game i want something different, and Dancer as healer would fulfill that for me (depending on implementation)
I have loved Astro and like Warrior but does not really meet my needs in that i would main them

It doesn't read it that way at all, though.

For one i think dps we have enough until 6 or 7.0

I disagree completely because not all dps fit in the same schema. We have enough melee dps because besides tanks they're the only role with 4 members, but beyond that we'll have to agree to disagree.

Which is fine you have the right for your opinion. Tank and healers need variety too.

Whether or not tanks and healers need variety is beside the point when you say dps should get no new jobs until 6 or 7.0.... Ranger dps are far less represented than tanks or healers. Only two jobs are in that role, if we're going to talk about needing variety.

The whole context pivots on the idea that "any DPS" will do. But it won't. We already know they aren't adding anymore melee dps according to Yoshi-P, so that's fine - it's pretty much off the table. I do think we could use a 3rd ranged physical to help balance out the sub-categories a bit, after all pretty much every group wants this particular role because of the skill set they've been given. But even we did include melee DPS, we don't need another SAM/MNK type melee, if anything we'd need something to help compete with NIN because it's also a job that is highly sought after. So technically there is still some leeway in that argument I think.

As for melee healer, a lot of people I talk to seem to think Dancer could be a melee healer, for whatever reasons. I don't see a problem with it and would certainly add some playstyle variety so hopefully they are at least considering stuff like this, if not for dancer then something in the future.
