While I'd love to see more variety in jobs, the flipside of the WoW system is multistacking powerful classes. We at least have the safety net of the "one player per job" bonus.

I'm saying it's dumb to stack half of your raid with one class, just as it's dumb for the community to settle on one specific setup for everything or don't bother opening pf. Both metas need to be broken.
