    And no, a tiny % of bad WAR don't justify the imbalance either.
    I think that was the point, though. They wanted there to be a job or two that stood a head above the others. Sure, it annoyed me when one Warrior smirked at me at the start of a dungeon, saying, "I don't need you." Despite having faced that kind of smugness and been pissed off by it, I still would defend keeping Warriors as they are. Speaking of which, Dark Knights need a bit more love. They're too squishy. Square needs to put them nearly on par with Warriors.

    Unless SE comes out and acknowledges that directly, I'll continue to campaign against it. Because it's not all roses and sunshine as you are describing. Any one job that can solo group desgined content easily is a problem, for both player experience generally and roles whose job it is to heal.

    Try leveling up your Warrior and soloing old content with it, unsynced, and see if you change your tune in the end. It's quite fun. I do that with a friend of mine, though I haven't tried soloing as I've prompted. Duoing is enough for me. Because Warrior exists, it's possible to clear some content like the Aquaducts with a lighter party: one tank, one healer, a DPS to expedite. This works well for people who play with a couple of friends like me instead of using Party Finder to make a large party.

    Non-standard lines were fun on BLM. Kaiten was fun for some SAM. AST cards are about to be ruined for some. Unfortunately game balance doesn't always benefit all player preferences.

    If your fun is dependent on solo RPGing an MMO, frankly you should unsubscribe. Most content is designed for groups.

    No one else gets to decide how others play the game, let alone whether they do.

    If that's the actual intent, I would love to hear that from the horse's mouth, not just something people think is the case.

    I disagree on Dark Night. A competent DRK barely takes any damage. It's just that many of them haven't learned how to mitigate properly. In my opinion, DRK has the level of survivability all the other tanks should have.
