And I especially expect it given all the other changes that need to be tolerated with the rotation rework no one asked for.

Between the new expansion quality and the state of jobs, I'm not sure if this game has a budget problem or what the deal is. It seems like several aspects of the game are on auto pilot for a major new launch. It isn't just BLM that is scuffed, and many others have been long since wrecked with no feedback acknowledged.
Is possibles that this just cynical move on part of SE to get more moneys? "Come play DT and become Pictomancer! Can be best DPS character evers (until next flavor comes with next expansion)".
