Are role actions a nerf?

[Aramina]

I mean when they said cross role I thought they meant that like for like not crossing dps skills with tank skills, like warrior and no internal release , or pali not having stone skin, but they took thing a step further and took actual useful skills from jobs for no reason other than they cool this is just not cool to me

I don't believe we have seen evidence of them taking things away. IE just because Esuna is a cross-role option doesn't inherantly mean that WHM do not get it innately. Maybe they do, maybe they don't... but I don't think we know for sure either way yet.
