Why are ranged using LB so much now?

[ohmRICE]

Well you must be doing something wrong because there aren't always melee in my parties and I use mine whenever I have the opportunity. I use it when appropriate and I'll be the first to agree that it's annoying when a melee just sits on their LB and doesn't use it when I'm sitting back waiting on them. I often lament however just how weak our ranged limit break is especially against a boss.

I don't like to rock the boat and upset a party by using ranged LB3 mostly~ some people get very upset if you use it because "the DRG was going to use it!" etc.

If there's no melee in the party though I'll wait for the SMN or BRD to go since they should have a chance to see theirs as well before I use it. BLM though? Nah.
