Ok, so much wrong info here.
Reason why people are going in the direction of "wanting" homogenization between the DPS is literally because of the fact that we get the "Meta" crap.
Its because some people seem to not understand that having large gaps between DPS from Personal powerhouse to utility rich DPS makes people choose powerhouses over utility because they need to to battle enrage.
If there is no reward in bringing Utility jobs at all except for the fact that no personal powerhouse DPS joins the PF the first 30 minutes then that by itself calls for homogenization as one way of eliminating the Personal DPS vs Utility DPS constant battle for spots.
One patch will be Utility meta, other patch its Personal DPS Meta.. It will never end unless the community opens up for playing with every class.
Of course people will say; "Yeah but it will be meta if...." Im so tired of this meta bullshit. There should be no such thing as meta at all. and thats why people are starting to advocate homogenization, because of the player base going for meta just because they saw ONE group use that comp and now suddenly everyone needs that comp to complete the task.. even though normally it never was like that.
But now it actually IS a real meta for the first time. The gap has never been more visible to the point where ACTUAL exclusion is happening.
I cant comment for everyone, but I believe most of us dont want every DPS to have the same attacks, but with different animations. But its beeing forced oppon us to ask for it BECAUSE we want to be able to play too, even if we love to play only RDM.. or NIN.. or w/e comes short that patch.
I actually want classes to be unique, I want some of the classes harder to play than others.
But what I do not want, is to have to sacrifice some jobs being left out certain content for that to happen.
Ninja tbf in abilities and all is fine, I even think Ten-Chi-Jin should stay the way it is. There IS a permanent fix for mudra lag, but oh forbid them to make it client side, because then people can hack it.. Sure they can, but there is a thing called permaban too, so dont give me that bull.
Ninja needs potency buffs yes. But most DPS lack could be done with simply giving us the Bunshin that was teased to us for the 5.0 teaser. And dripping blades given back to us. Nothing else needs to be done.
