Sam and Mnk need more than Diversion

[Tsilyi]

It's the easiest solution to put it on invigorate for all melee. solves both mnk and sam at once. More complicated solutions aren't necessary, since ranged physical has two threat dumps and casters have diversion and lucid as a dump. It's bring melee on par with caster threat reductions.

[Shurrikhan]

Ranged: Tactician, Refresh
Casters: Lucid Dreaming, Diversion
Dragoon: Diversion, Elusive Jump
Ninja: Diversion, Shadewalker

Every other DPS has two options should they so choose. Only MNK and SAM have one. So... please explain how this isn't an issue with these two jobs.

That's easy! They get Smokescreen. From the Ninja. The Ninja is required anyways, right? And it's only 33% less effective over time, so that should be good enough.

Chances are, if you're bringing a monk/samurai, you're not bringing a ninja. Bards will whine too much if you don't have a dragoon.
