    Really curious what data you're looking at, because SMN is beating BLM on every fight in Eden right now? Even for top parses it's ahead on 3/4 of them. It's only getting more obvious that SMN was egregiously over-buffed. The post-patch change is way out of line with the other Jobs that got adjusted upwards - RDM, MCH, DNC, and SAM. SMN's gains are 60-70% higher than RDM, which has seen the second-biggest increase in output. E1S? SMN is up 12%; the pre-patch gap with BLM was only 2%. E2S? SMN is up 12%; the pre-patch gap with BLM was 10%. E3S? SMN is up 11%; the pre-patch gap with BLM was 7%. E4S? SMN is up 11%; the pre-patch gap with BLM was 9%.

    This is one of the biggest buffs that I can ever remember in a non-expansion patch, and it's all the more curious because SMN was not even the worst off. Combined with its ridiculous mobility and the noticeable slowing of its frenetic playstyle, I'm not even sure why SMN should be beating RDM. (And incidentally, RDM is exactly where it ought to be: 2-4% behind BLM.)
