Meanwhile, PvP SMN is over here with Phoenix as a healing option and Bahamut as their DPS option. Like, you can choose which to use for your Adrenaline Rush, with Phoenix doing less damage (and DoT damage) while giving the party a heal vs Bahamut that does more direct damage. AND they can use Carby shields on other players.

As much as people praise modern PvP design and say "Why can't we have that in PvE?", if they did that with PvP SMN, the first time a SMN used Phoenix instead of Bahamut, they'd be decried for being a bad suboptimal player.

This is why we can't have nice things.
