You can't see because you're not looking hard enough. There is something that is a waste of time, that's making classes that play exactly the same as each other.

SMN and SCH play the same way when SCH is DPSing. That's why SCH's primary function is not a DPS. That's what differentiates it from SMN. What is NIN compared to THF, if it were to just be an extension of ROG? It would play exactly the same as THF but with the ninjitsu ability. Aside from "feelings", there is not a single sensible reason to double up on the same class being the same role.

This topic has been beat to death, but it's because you're new here you don't seem to know just how beaten this horse is.
