Why are they buffing Black Mage

[Akiza]

Why are Black Mages getting buffed when good Black Mages in T6 and T7 already put out 250dps which is pretty solid for a caster. Buffing the Black Mage will only cause scrub Black Mages to be on par with good ones while the Black Mages that are good will put out 320dps easily.

This would be like buffing the Summoner just because quit a few of them only can hit 168dps in turn 6 while good Summoner puts out 260dps that would just make good Summoner's beyond op and sub par Summoner's on par with good ones.

because black mage single target dps is pretty abysmal when compared to every other dps job. It also has extremely low utility when compared with any other dps job. And 250 dps is pretty low in new coil when compared to well.. every other dps job.

A good SMN isn't only putting out 260 on T6, More in range of 400.

The fact that you think 250 is good dps in t6-7 is hilarious. Most DPS i90 and higher can push 300-350 easily. Great dps can pull 400 at i95+.

Great DPS can pull 400+ ? @i95+ even? Please oh wise one tell me what bad parser you use or poor culling techniques are being used! If you were throwing out an arbitrary number then please don't make it sound like that is the "standard that every dps out there meets... because even among the best players I've seen that can be quite absurd unless they play perfect and never get any chains/shrieks/voices every time they do those turns.

I'm sure I could go around say YA I DID 500 DPS on t6/7 (during my 1 minute short burst all buffs cool down) @i108 mind you. However that would be like a disclosure from an absurd commercial, like a can of soda giving me so much energy I can shoot eye lasers or some crap.

I would be happy with stack able Fire starters...
I don't know how many of those I've missed...

I don't see why you have to call them like that. That's just unnecessary. And we don't know how they'll buff them yet, don't assume things until we know what they're buffing.
