Ranged DPS role is about to be excluded from all content

[Dogempire]

especially since now the ranged are the easiest dos classes (mobility advantagesl) and have easy rotas to maintain

Uhh... have you even played Bard/Machinist? And I mean in like, a non-dumpster fire way?

nope... there she goes : /

she also said something about "so much utility", did i miss something ? like i seem to distinctly remember that mch utility is tactician, which is basically addle with longer cooldown , and bard can add a single target mantra to that list+paean which in a raid setting is about as usefull as a slow or the BLU death skill ? maybe i'm missing something here but i really can't find the utility these jobs offer

I'll get around to it eventually. I can't be expected to level everything to 80 just to throw it into savage for a few attempts after training on a dummy.

Nah, but it's a pretty general sentiment. "If you don't X, how can you know Y".

Well theories should base on practical experience at best... not always a must have, but if the theory is already false - the question got it’s right to be asked... : /

I mean in a lot of situations what you're saying would make sense, but you can't call the ranged role as a whole the easiest dps role if you haven't even bothered to level a single job in that category to 80 or heck even 70.

People shouldn't be allowed to generalize things that they have no knowledge of, plain and simple. It would be like me saying that Alphascape savage is harder than Gordias savage even though I haven't done any raids in either.
