    Glad we're all not showing any of that bias. Only us evil Black mages, not wanting to be ostracized for progression.

    EDIT: Whelp. I hit my post limit.

    Really thought I had one more.

    @Kejara. Rank by progress, look at 273. Week 1 clear was possible, they did it, and if you look through the data enough, you can see other groups with bottom 3 and 1 big3 where the big3 can be replaced by a Samurai or a tippity toppity lower 6 and clear.

    @Wayfinder

    Alright, I kind of get your position, but I have a question for you.

    What about those of us -not- in the speedkilling community? I've joined one group for it back in Alte Roite, and while it was fun, it wasn't my thing. I primarily join party finder to A) Progress outside my static and B) help other people get their clears.

    Why should my job inherently be weaker for what I want to do, especially when some of those people -really need- that advantage Black Mage can bring? If everyone gets bumped up in DPS, -then the DPS check is higher- in the next tier. You don't honestly think they'd keep it relatively the same despite giving 60% of the dps jobs an increase, do you?

    it's easy to cherry pick quotes without context, if you read his comment prior, you can see that he feels it's justified for BLM to do the most damage as it has the least amount of utility to contribute to a raid in progression. RDM on the other hand was designed to contribute to a raid's progression. So it's only FAIR that RDM should see more representation in progresion because THATS THE POINT OF IT. in alphascape, this was true and RDM had more clears than both SMN and BLM but both of them filled a strong healthy coexistence in speed kills and optimized play where rdm had no place. This isn't Bias, this is fair distribution of value in a role.
