This is what killed WoW for me, was the constant complaints about not doing enough DPS or dmg. Look not every class needs to be the top of the DPS charts just because people don't like seeing smaller numbers, while SMN, BRD, etc constantly does more dps. You know what BRD doesn't have? Heals, raise, tether, etc. SMN has a pet, we have better heals. Each job has it's own thing, only thing that needs to change imo is holy and flare which could be AOE.

All this does is create a vicious cycle of nerfing and buffing jobs, unless everyone puts out the exact same damage/dps as the next person, everyone gets a pet, heals, raise, it will just continue on forever but even then it would be well there's no point in picking this job over that job because reasons. If the job is failing to keep up then I can see a change is needed, otherwise leave it alone.
