    Hybrids don't work too well, why take a weaker hybrid healer when you can take a much more competent dedicated healer? Same with Tank, Also PLD and WAR are capable, depending on gear, of outputting competent DPS, our WAR in turn 13 puts out a respectable 400 DPS+, even with gearing out for accuracy and survivability. Gear either out in full det/crit gear with DPS accs and they will do very good DPS. My 125 PLD, I can push out a pretty consistent 425 DPS on the dummy.

    Also, if you balance content for hybrids then it becomes much easier on dedicated roles. Thus still eliminating the need for hybrids. Path of least resistence yo!

    It only works with support hybrids in FFXIV because there aint no dedicated support to use instead.

    Also too much flexibility leads to redundance of certain jobs for content. Just look at FFXI. Not to mention, even hybrids in FFXI when utilised are pushed into a specific task which does not utilize the full scope of them for the above reasons, *cough* stun SCH *cough*
