Yes conjurer, not white mage. White mage to me has aero 3 and some crowd control and stone/wind elements and once upon a time a water attack. Not this conjurer with a functioning lily system.
Astro to me died in shb, with a bit of it hanging around as noct sect. Now thats gone, Astro is likely going to be dead to me unless they reverse course back to at least SB

My other favourite job (dark knight) got turned into Warrior this expansion. So not exactly sure what to expect from EW
Gunbreaker I guess is my favourite tank atm? It might get a few good things axed.

My favourite dps jobs...rdm I'm expecting to remain a bit stale, dancer could go either way and dragoon...well I'm looking forward to being able to poledance again after 6 years. It might get some Qol.


I've been playing long enough to become extremely jaded when it comes to job changes because they keep dumbing things down and making things worse
SE once made jobs and actions with the lore and gave each job an identity. Gone are those days.
Weather or not EW fixes anything, Shadowbringers will be remembered for being the worst expansion for job identity. Every job they touched and tried to improve turned into a massive reduction, name one beneficial job change this expansion you can name 5 that people hated.

Also the games going down a painful trend of being too accessible, to the point in expert roulette you don’t even have to do mechanics (Ran Relict as a tank with no buffs and only did snort mechanic, and didn’t die once)
