Gods, I miss the days of support from RIFT and FFXI. Instead, we got these wierd mutant-DPS support hybrids that basically are so dead set on being a "DPS" that they refuse to use their support utility.

I'd love a class devoted to Support. I'd love for Mechanist and Bard to both get side-jobs ala the Soul Crystal system to try and get real Ranged DPS and share a spot with BLM's.

I think FFXIV's biggest issue right now is we have a very rigid structure on our party comp. There's not much room for fluidity in progression/PUG raiding.

2 Tanks
2 Heals
2 Melee DPS
1 Magic DPS
1 Ranged DPS

I'd personally prefer

2 tank
2 Heals
1-3 Physical DPS
1-2 Magical DPS
1 Optional Support
