"Players who already like the way things are can feel at ease..."

Honestly, I don't see an issue if some jobs are better in certain high-end fights?

If PF locks out NIN, just go to the MB and buy a VPR weapon, I can see it being an issue in other MMOs where you're locked to one class on your character, but you can swap to any job in this game.

If you want to prog harder content where people are more likely to lock out jobs, sometimes you have to play jobs you may not like for a better prog experience, ask all the BLM mains who had to play RDM/SMN for prog.

As long as different jobs get a chance to shine in subtle ways, I think the feeling of satisfaction from your job being the right tool for the job is worth it. And even when we’ve had cases of certain jobs being favored by a fight, like Astro in P3, that didn’t stop White Mages from getting parties and clearing. Sage/Scholar comps got the job done too
