Im starting to think about looking for a new group next tier if nothing is done about smn. Either way just a depressing expac for me and wish smn didnt feel like a unfinished job.
RPR feels good but I did hear one complain from the reaper in my group. The whole concept is to build a triple Enshroud and 1 death basically kills 1k DPS usually.

RDM is reliable and safe to play. Hell, twice I cleared the door boss with both healer down and I double raised. SMN can't do that.

Caster choices, imho, feel this way.

- RDM - Safe and reliable prog caster that has a brain dead rotation but is still a caster.
- SMN - Safe and not reliable prog caster which induce frustrations in raid (I still like to play it but the frustration > the fun for me) Also, not really a caster anymore and people justify the damage nerf from that.
- BLM - Yoshida's baby. Will always be the top gun. Megumin memes. EXPLOSION. Not prog friendly unless you have someone playing RDM/SMN.

Just saying about... that *mobility is DPS gain* My friend was on Machinist and he moved away from my BLM so he kept my DPS up. His mobility was my Black Mage DPS gain.
