Anyone else wish RDM was a PURE support class?

[Bourne_Endeavor]

That's not entirely true. Bards and Enchanters in both EQ's prove that singular focus on support roles is extremely desirable. But we'd need to ditch the 4man group model. Which I support. 8 man group as the base would fix the DPS queues across all datacenters.

Key word: Everquest

FFXIV is not designed to have pure support roles. The whole healer DPS meta exists because of how damage focused this game is. Increasing the role requirements doesn't change anything. Praetorium and Castrum have 8 people. And what happens? Speed runs since it's a cakewalk. Even the 24 man raids slot five DPS because their one attempt at double tanks (Labyrinths) severely hindered queue times and gave the off tank nothing to do.
