90% of the time, ranged are at melee ranged for stars, PLD wings, defensive buff and else. So no, 4 ranged would not run like headless chicken.
Of course I never pointed out that rangeds DPS should do the same damage as melees, there should be a 500 DPS gap maximum, because it's what you're loosing if you fail all your positionnals as a DRG. And let's get real, if you're hitting the boss frontside all the time, you ask to be replaced for a ranged DPS.

We need to get real, ranged tax exist to avoid the 1 melee scenario. But currently it's way too high, especially with the existence of the unbalanced SMN.
