whats up with the pictomancer hate

[KageTokage]

I was excited for Pictomancer, I hope the mechanics work like Dancer, since it'll be an easy transition to me and finally give me a reason to play caster. However, my hype has been somewhat ruined because someone claimed claimed that YP mentioned that the class would have to prepare their spells, and will have long cast times for the preparation as a result. Kinda like casters in DnD.

The other casters in the game don't do it for me, so I was hoping PM would finally be my reason to run Caster.

I'm honestly more excited for the job if it has higher emphasis on hardcasting akin to BLM instead of being predominantly instacasts like SMN.
