No Phlegma equivalent? White Mage has Assize and Misery. Scholar has Energy Drain and Ruin II which is significantly more versatile than Toxikon as well. Astrologian had an entire damage buffing system which has since been diminished in scale, but is still at least partially present. Also Lord of Crowns. And even if that wasn’t the case, the issue that we have been asking for is gameplay that isn’t almost entirely “spam glare/broil/malefic.”

“Spam Dosis, except 1 less time per 40 seconds” was not the answer. It’s not about doing more damage, it’s about having a job that actually has gameplay and doesn’t feel like a level 1 job for the majority of most encounters.
