Right on. Although I did use the word nerf, as changing a support-DD into a DD is exactly what a nerf is to me: removing of its mastering of control. In other words, a nerf. Adding more DD-capability doesn't factor into it, it's that they removed the support capabilities that matters.

And Sephrick..no, I haven't been to the Ifrit battle. Like I said in a previous post I almost exclusively solo and duo. Naturally, if you're an end-game type of person this makes your definitions wildly different from mine when it comes to what a nerf is and what matters in a class.
