with THM, you can nuke......... wait..... wait... nuke......... gimp buff..... wait..... nuke
Personally I think they just dug themselves an irrational hole by limiting THM and CNJ to the same number of action/traits as the melee classes. That just isn't reasonable... mages should always have more spells than they need because some spells are just situational. When you try to pretend they aren't and stretch abilities out well then this is what you get. You get a "nuking" class with only 3/6 elements, a BLM with no Ancient Magic, and a list of nukes that has holes in it. I really want to hope the classes play out, and I'm excited to try them, I'm just... skeptical.
