RDM was never difficult and it never will be. It, only with SAM, came into existence during the dumbing down of the game. HW versions of DRK, AST, and MCH were all very different. But you know this already. So why pretend it is super complex?

Job changes affect everyone, not just those who have time or desire to play savage/ultimates. It's just that the greatest concentration of need is in that area, so it is the area that should have the focus. It is not the correct course of actions to speak only for oneself, but to try and balance the game for everyone.

Anyone that believes that only certain people can talk at the table are actual elitists and elitists are generally overcompensating for something. The same is true in the pvp world.
