We're already long passed the point where DPS-checks are getting stomped on. Only P4S has one, and that's only because people haven't all gotten their weapons yet. We're two weeks out from tome weapons too. So even players not clearing P3S will have a massive power swing coming. So making the fights mildly easier won't really have any impact.
I know about BLM and SAM, but it was not needed to buff them. Just nerf MNK / RPR and we would´ve what has been needed. The current "buff only" mentality makes the content nothing but easier. And the question "what´s their way of balancing" is still in the room. They say that they won´t balance around difficulty, but we pay a range-tax. On the other hand stuff is claimed like above "busy jobs...", while they´re not the busiest. So yeah, the only way why MNK and RPR has to be so powerful is to get ppl into them, or not?!

Every fight has a DPS check and a lot of ppl can´t past P2s enrage even with LB3 and no deaths. They´re just not good players and this patch does a lot to them. Instead of learning to execute their class a bit better, they can rely on huge buffs. It just doesn´t make sense to call something savage then, when they keep making it easier and easier, no matter how irrelevant it might be for top players.
