They're still not worth enough to see multiple ranged in a party composition.
Two casters, no problem.
Two Melee, no problem.
Two ranged, your group just lost 2k DPS for the sake of "mobility" that will profit only them.

So far, this savage tier is not as mobile as the previous one. Ranged DPS are still the lowest when they should shine if mobility was that usefull, but it's only the 4th day into savage. We'll get to see real data much later.
The gap will stretch itself as day passes like it did for the previous tier.
The main problem is that there is no excuse for that gap, no utility, nothing that brings anything to the group. So far, not a single bait mechanic, again from my experience.
isnt 2k moot in the grand scheme of it all anyways? also jobs good jobs bad isnt black and white its based on a fight-to-fight basis. Progression Meta and Speed meta are soley relevant in these fights along with ultimates but the calculations are every changing mastery of the job and the mechs are the only thing thats important and topics like this just fuel vitriol when its not even that big of a deal

also didnt TEA first clear had 2 ranged jobs? BRD and DNC? F i bring BRD to Savage and clear it thats end of story the issues are people taking this to heart and demanding specific jobs due to the majority view on ranged being "weak"
