7.0 We need new caster and ranged dps balance the score

[Ultimatecalibur]

Ranged are explicitly split into two categories, Magical and Physical Ranged respectively. This is because of Limit Break and Party Composition. SE has designed 8man content around 2 Tank/2 Healer/2 Melee/1 Caster/1 Ranged since ARR's launch, but modern standards allow us to assume the second melee slot is a flex pick. In addition, Blue Mage is a limited job, and therefore intentionally excluded from current content. As such, Victoria is at least right that we need a new caster and ranged DPS job. What I think SE should do, however, is only add one job from here on, unless they're planning on adding more tanks and healers (who really need attention, even Sage couldn't escape their homogeneity). At this point we only need one more of each DPS role, so spacing it out would be better, but if I were to ask for two jobs in 7.0, I would want a Scouting Melee DPS and a Caster DPS, as Scouting is the only melee armor set without a second job option at the moment. It would also allow more focus on reworking and tuning jobs to be more appropriate in all content.

We do not need a new caster. Due, to as you point out, Full party content being intended to be done by 8 players made up of 2 tanks, 1 regen healer, 1 shield healer, 2 melee, 1 ranged physical and 1 caster, ideal job distribution should be divided up into 25% tanks, 12.5% regen healers, 12.5% shield healers, 25% melee, 12.5% ranged physical and 12.5% casters. This is not really possible as DpS jobs are more popular than tanks and healers so the EW role percentages are ~21% tanks, ~10.5% regen healers, ~10.5% shield healers, ~26.3% melee, ~15.7% physical ranged and ~15.7% casters.

Never have we ever considered casters and ranged physical DPS
.it's 3 ranged physical and 3 casters. They fill different roles in a party

They are sub-roles of ranged just like how healers have sub-roles of shield and pure/regen and tanks in theory had sub-roles of Main tank and Off tank. The physical/magical ranged split is actually one of the best examples of proper sub-role balance to the point most players do not realize that they are acually sub-roles.
