    Wait til you see a good NIN

    NIN is a high skill expression job but ultimately the best melee in the game when played at the top level.

    I think the problem we have is they were so scared of having a Ranged Meta they overcooked the kits for melee and gave ranged....very little.

    BRD for instance now that there's 3 melees on every team.....just runs, they can't do anything else unless they have someone babysit them because it takes so long for them to get a clean shot off because someone thought balancing them for frontlines over CC was a priority, in CC they just die.

    i dont think its necessarily bad to have certain jobs be better in frontlines vs CC. that said i dont really know it bard is actually good in FL because i dont play that mode.

    i agree btw, that melee are too strong in CC compared to everything else, and ranged need a bone thrown.

    Its bad that in CC has a ranked and FL does not. And you may not think adventurer plates are a reward but some of us do. I want that diamond plate. The entire balancing needs to be done for CC, FL is a silly sidemode at this point that could never be balanced or taken seriously just by the sheer volumes of players present.

    Range can be very deadly, assuming people are fools and don't aim at them in CC (happens more often than you think at Bronze and Silver). But should they get focused, yeah, they can't really do much.

    Nothing is "high skill" in pvp. You have 4-5 buttons.
