And again the "Balanced raid enviroment" holds back the game. This mentality holds back customization of classes, skills, equipment stats and horizontal progression. I really wish they'd drop this idea in this game, but it's just a pipe dream too, so I can only hope that the next FF MMO won't follow the same way.
