Yeah, I do not like it but let's be realistic here. They don't have many dev working on job balancing. They have priorities. WHM and MCH are in much dire situation. Dragon Kick Monk is an atrocity. They just released the new SMN and they recently found out the gameplay in raid isn't feeling good at all. They can just buff potencies but having a rework done after 3 months on a complete rework doesn't sound feasible. Maybe they can do some stuff like removing certain restrictions. That would be already much better to have gems untied to Phoenix and Bahamut. It would be fantastic that Searing Light comes from the SMN and it would be great if Phoenix healing spells were standing alone buttons like Magick Barrier.

But things like raise being an issue. The oversimplicity of the job and the lack of engagement to optimize will still be present. SMN will most likely still have the overly simple gameplay and that's unlikely going to change until 7.0
