Well the issue currently is BRD is a job highly focused on support when compared to everything ARC has to offer. How else will they add another job for ARC if they can't even consider a non DPS/Support hybrid?

Ranger should be a DPS job when compared to BRD. BRD should be more supportive and less DPSish than it currently is. Hopefully this will resolve when level cap is raised, otherwise ARC/BRD shouldn't have much hope for RNG nor any other job for ARC to exist.

This is but 1 of many holes SE dug themselves into when deciding to put a bandage over the armoury system of 1.0, it either needed to be scrapped or balanced to work, SE did neither and now we have a mess.
