Most challenging and wanted DPS class?

[Nezia]

death to blm is a good 200-300 dps lost due to dropping enochian (cd, dmg inc, polygot etc )and neeeding to set things up again, ala bliz, thunder etc etc

That's cute, but:
Death to SMN is a good bahamut loss.
Death do DRG is a good Life of the dragon loss.

Everyone loses something uppon dying, some more than others, BLM is one of the classes with least penalty for dying, only second by BRD and NIN and maybe SAM. also all other classes need invigorate/lucid dream when ressed or they will just cast 5 or 6 skills and run out of resources to keep going, while BLM just casts bliz III and is good to go.

like i said all jobs got their pet peeve. you just looking at the face of things that they get bliz going and mana is back but blm in 4.0 takes a slow ramp up to even reach back the dps output they can do.
i played other classes too and i know melee have tp problem, but im just saying blm isnt really "least penalty" as you say.
like yes melee cant do full on rotation like nothing happen but atleast their height of weaponskill potency is still their per ws use. blm's max spell potency height is not there because a) lost enochian b) no astral fire 3.
that being said, i dont think taking recovery from a death to account for job difficultly comparison is the right choice. but whatever, its an opinion and every1 is different.

to op, i would like to suggest you just play all the class to try out whats challenging for you to see for yourself but sadly, majorly of the class rotation or the difficultly doesnt comes until you get full access to your ability at 70. even if you go to wotd for trying out classes its still not enough to see what you need to see, since some jobs pick up skill/spell/ability in the 60 to 70 that changes things up
