Summoner needs a quick fix too

MP issues? We have a fix for that, it's called Bard.

BLM does superior single target damage to SMN and doesnt require BRD to gimp their dps, how is that fair?

This is true. In FCoB, except possibly T11, you NEED Ballad as SMN to compete with a BLM. Considering T10-12 do not require Ballad for healers except during progression, it becomes an issue of Army's or Foe's, with Ballad being by far the least helpful song to the raid just to sing for SMN.

Any time you could sing Ballad for SMN (assuming healers don't need it also), you could be singing Foe's for BLM/SCH and make the difference that much stronger.

It's fair because your statement isn't true. This whole thread is insane.
