What happens with the next expansion then? :thinking:

Odd number off balance, even balance.

Odd number off balance, even balance.

Stats really should just not be considered for this balance bs. NIN and BRD/MCH perform completely different roles yet they both use dex.
I'm more inclined to believe if we get another DPS it would be another Ranged Physical as there is only 2 of them and 3 of everything else, and with SAM more then likely coming... I highly doubt it will be made a Ranged Physical. If SAM is a DPS it will make 4 melee's while everything else only has 2-3. If it's a Tank, same story.
By making SAM a Melee using STR it will offset the balance of melee having 4 jobs within it's role like I mentioned. So please don't use this argument about balance. SE will do whatever because whatever they do it will offset the "Balance" for someone.

It's fine to make guesses because that's what everyone is doing because it's very soon till the announcement but please don't say such triggering things.

3 tanks
3 healers
3 melee
5 ranged (with RDM)

3 vit
2 str
3 dex
3 int (with RDM)
3 mnd

3 tanks
3 healers
3 melee
2 physical ranged
3 magic ranged

There are tons of ways to split the groupings. Most speculation is pointless but it seems especially pointless to base it on that.

Thank you. I agree with this comment, like I said. Anything SE do at this point will offset the "balance" for someone.
