And yes it will come across as whiny and butthurt from a lot of ARC/BRD's. However, I'm willing to wager that if another job had its fundamental role completely changed and then had its original role stripped away from it, that class would QQ just the same. Obviously that did not all happen last night, it was just a continuation.

And like you said BRD is support, ARC is a DD. Did ARC as a DD need a nerf because it was overpowered? No, it did not. It was bottom/lower tier before yesterdays update and now it is even worse off as it got nerfed whilst other DD jobs got buffs. If they had made it only applicable to BRD or given some ARC exclusive ability to make up for it then fair enough but they didn't. It was a flat out nerf.
Every class/job got some sort of adjustment. That's what happens when things get balanced properly. Cry me a river.
