    According to most recent FFXIVCensus data, there are 78,990 BRD/MCH. Meanwhile there are 261,865 combined tanks and healers.

    So yes, they are underrepresented by every metric.
    Because yes, nitpicking enough to pull one type of DPS out but then comparing it to combined tanks and healers is totally representative.

    Try breaking that down into tanks or healers, and hmmm. I dunno. Remove SCH from that since I don't consider it an applicable healing class, I don't like doing shield/preventative healing, I only like direct/regen healing. It's a thing, you know? I don't like a particular type of dps healer so it doesn't count when I'm tallying classes I have available.

    I didn't make the claim, I'm just providing evidence that it's not wrong. Which, really shouldn't be necessary since it's a fairly obvious that's how it's going to play out in a 6 vs 2.

    Except it's not 6 vs 2, it's 3 vs 3 vs 2.
    Please stop trying to consider tanks and healers as the same role that you can pool together.

    I'm not the one that pooled them together.

    Please learn how to read.
