Ranged DPS role is about to be excluded from all content

I think BLM is in a good spot anyway, it's just that the counterparts SMN got heavily nerfed and RDM was left mostly untouched, while BLM got a lot of amazing changes.
They should bring the ranged DPS up instead of nerfing what's at the top. If anything needs nerfing, it's monk.

It depends on the direction they take. If they nerf the melee, Black Mage has to be brought down otherwise it's a God without equal. It's a bit silly they would need to increase five jobs' overall rDPS by 1,000—more for Red Mage and Summoner—just because they don't want Black Mages to feel bad about a slight nerf.
