With the extremely tight DPS checks MCH/BRD are being discluded from Savage groups

[SovereignAegis]

There is now this prevailing mentality where if you can't do at least 1.2k DPS steadily then you're removed from the party.

Uhm... This is exactly what we were all fearing for bards and machinists. We already saw it with Bismark EX (No, not Ravana EX as much at all), and this has carried over to Alexander Savage as we all suspected.


"B-BUT HEALER MANA!" B- BUT HEALERS GON GET GOOD MATE AND CONSERVE MANA. Or else they get kicked too, the fights in A1/A2 are DPS checks and little more.
And with how tight the DPS checks are (Time limit! LITERALLY.) there is NO WAY a healer should be able to run OOM without major mess ups on their side and DPS side. There is no way that the team is going to surrender even more DPS just to give a healer who is bleeding mana wastefully more mana to waste.

MCH / BRD aren't bringing anything utility wise to make up for this, and parties already know this and are removing their "weak link". People aren't ignorant.

MCH and bards are obsolete already, on the FIRST DAY OUT.
