    This is always such a disingenuous take. Poor job balance impacts the casual to midcore range significantly more than the 1%. PF is the wild west, dealing with general inconsistencies of players and varying skill levels. Only allowing specific jobs who are dwarfing their counterparts helps to mitigate this. Think about it, if a subpar Black Mage can rival a top tier Red Mage. Why wouldn't you want to lock the Caster spot to Black Mage? After all, you have a far higher chance of getting a subpar player while potentially lucking into someone better. It's only ever a benefit when the damage discrepancy is this bad. Hence why PF was locking Warrior and Paladin out of P8. They simply offer nothing Dark Knight and Gunbreaker don't do better even if the latter two are only average players.

    I'll always take the better player no matter what job they pick.

    That subpar Black Mage is going to cause me a lot more issues than the good red mage will.
