The thing is. If their excuse was it was soooooo powerful that it couldn't work in normal play. Make it super god like in the old fights! Let me cast Doom on Ifrit and kill him! Let me use Level 5 Death on Omega! At least then I could use it to farm old content for glams and mounts. But of noooooo. They have to make it a super weak class that also can't do actual content.
