Unfortunately, you are right...Current smn isn't busy enough for it to be where it used to be but it's not even a good caster. Has worst utility than rdm and does the same amount if not a little less dam as an rdm. It sucks! I personally have given up all hope Yoshi and the devs will listern and just keep smn as the super-easy job for casuals. I still think the caster role as a whole has the worst balancing this expac because of the state of smn. There isn't a mid-ground caster between dam and utility. BLM is you big dam caster and rdm is you utility caster...so where does that leave smn? *sigh* I be honest I hate EW because of this, this has been the least fun tier for me bc of the smn's rework and the fact I cant play rpr. Guess I will be looking for a new group next tier...Im not looking forward to that.
