Maybe they should add a % party buff to force groups to have melees in their ranks? Wait a minute...

All jobs should have a similar dps output within their role (Tank, DPS, Healer) so playstyle would be the main reason you choose to play a job.

Also, at what point the damage output of the rphys + % party buff become less impactful than taking another melee or PCT/BLM? I'd say we are not that far...
