Anyone else think caster has suffered this expansion? (hopes for the future)

That's the entire point of the Melee role and why it has higher damage in the first place, and a lot of people actually LIKED fighting for uptime and positionals on the Jobs that offered it.

It's a caster main who has no melee jobs leveled doing the complaining here, so that should say it all. Giant hitboxes defeat the point of playing melee in the first place, and no melee worth their salt asked for that. Although if caster mains keep complaining about 'mobility disadvantages', the next step is going to be to just cut out all their cast bars entirely. Literally every time that players try to leverage 'difficulty' complaints to gain a dps advantage for themselves, the dev team always responds the same way. Monkey's paw.

If you took away cast bars from a class like BLM it would just get nerfed to compensate so essentially all you'd be doing is making it easier to play. Hasn't this already happened to BLM itself anyway (by simplifying Enochian for example) and myriad other classes that are currently regarded as braindead? It seems to me making classes braindead just makes them very popular but also increases complaints on the forums.
