Big complaints are coming from the JP community, though same complaints can be seen here:
>combos are a bit confusing when you first get the job
>clarity could be better, especially for colorblind players when concerning hind/flank combo enders
>buffs/debuffs aren't long enough
>some people dislike the lack of a BIG DAMAGE BUTTON like communio/midare
>Ogcds of dreadwinder combo could use more range (this I agree with)

This, in conjunction with the post on lodestone makes it clear the only changes are probably just going to be:
>easing positionals/making it easier to discern for colorblind etc.
>increasing noxious gash to 30-40 seconds instead of 20

SE has no intent on changing the way the job itself works. All that is changing is QoL improvements and clarity.
So it's a nothingburger, there is nothing to complain about. Job will stay the same.
Before anyone whines about whether or not they are gonna be changing/removing positionals, just don't worry about it. In a perfect world there would be 0 positionals and all the best fights in the game don't have positional requirements anyway.
Ok, this feels more reassuring to me at least, they can also take that 2 min window crap and stick it, I find that schtick so boring!

Loving VPR so far, can't wait to have my cuppa log on and carry on levelling it today
