    Id argue its more sign of braindeadness. Considering SMN is pretty weak but still the most played dps because its really really really easy.

    It's a mix of both, Summoner in endwalker was at least the "meta" caster, due to how it's mobility was free, it did generally better then red mage and even with black mage for prog you'd prefer a job with a rez and mobility, over one where the group has to sometimes play around.

    Obviously theirs a factor of ease of use (white mage is popular over astro for a reason) but I think job balance, also plays a massive factor in this.

    Which I hope we can at least agree that a jobs play rate shouldn't be a reason why we shouldn't balance something... because like I said warrior might be fun for the person playing it but it sure isn't fun for any healer.

    Warrior in raids is largely fine... I think it still has a bit too much healing i personally don't like how shake it off has a regen, It's short invul will make it a great pick, but it's currently fine utility wise and damage wise, I think for raids tank balance/gameplay is pretty on point outside of Dark Knight, but I think that job needs a rework anyway
