With some Jobs play style completely changed, isn't it time for alternate job specs?

while you are right, minorities should not be ignored for playstyle... one look at WoW and what the raiding minority did for that game, shows what happens when they are listened to.
the hard truth here is that SE does its best in FFxiv to cater to the idea that the game should be accessible to all. I dont see that changing. making things more difficult to play does not seem to be in their design philosophy, which is both good and bad. in this case, its definitely bad for you. But, dont take it personally, it just the way they made the game we all play.

I'm so very glad they don't cater to the raid or die crowd. Look at some of the other games where people are locked out because they are considered sub par, not by game standards but by other people's interpretation of what standards they wish to impose. Summoner now looks like a job I want to try out can't wait for the changes.
