While I am focused on grabbing the mount currently, I will be trying to go into more difficult content, including speed clears, later; I'm just thinking in long-term, you follow? I'm not disagreeing with you, far from it; it's just that my brain works in very weird-as-shit ways, and I'm terrible at explaining shit.
By the time you get to week 1 savage raiding, you'll already be able to play multiple jobs and roles, they'll all be geared, and RDM may even be the OP meta top DPS job. Things change here all the time in 14, and P8S is an exceptionally rare circumstance where job balance was a problem in week 1. It's not the norm, and it'll probably not happen again for several years given how much more this game has grown. Heck, back in HW MNK was the garbage job. Now look at it.
