Issue with double standards with Se and defining between dps and support.

[Judge_Xero]

I think some people miss the point on why support get a penalty for using their support skills.
As I've shown earlier in the thread, under reasonable usage there is a minimal 2% damage loss. The reason for the penalty is to simply deter over usage of Ballad/Paeon (Promote).

For progression you don't stack classes simply for LB and class synergy so 90% of people wouldn't run 4xBLM etc. Over geared PF content it doesn't matter what you take as Skill>Job composition and noone complains when you are winning.

All things being equal there wont be much difference between a 4 Brd/MCH and 4 BLM/SMN in PF.

---------------------------------------

TBH it really doesn't matter since SE knows where BRD sits. MCH is getting a small buff to compete with BRD as they are a little bit behind. But people who obviously don't understand what their class is capable of asking for buffs seems a bit strange IMO.

3.2 BRD/MCH Buff -> Mentor System?

Edit: hate to sound harsh, but this far into 3.0 if you can't understand how WD doesn't mean anything in relation to BRD/MCH (relative to the higher WD of Melee Classes) Damage and how WM/GB shifts AOE/Multi Target efficiency without greatly altering single target damage thus is a huge improvement over 2.0, then maybe spend more time getting gud, and less time on the forums?
