We're all aware of how bad the balance is currently, but this also highlights a design of apply ARR class balance logic in Dawntrail where things like uptime aren't even a problem anymore.
    TOP p6 makes one of the Ley Lines literally unusable. You can only get 3 gcds into it before you're forced to go on a merry-go-round. Should things like that not be considered?
    You're also gonna be forced to burn Xenos to run around (which is a loss on your burst window), and go into some pretty terrible lines to keep uptime (and not drop AF as you're forced to LB3). Like, there is an array of considerations you need to take to mitigate your losses, and you're still losing something. Yes, it's narrow- maybe it's just BLM and maybe Picto, but I think just dismissing it as "they can sort it out" when it's not really possible to do so every time is not a good idea.
    Even the idea that "the very best statics make it work!"- sure, but the majority of people are not those statics and probably is at the mercy of the pf. This feels like League, where some junk gets balanced for pro play, which is a different universe from what 99% of the playerbase experiences.
