I find it incredibly annoying that Squeenix just designs Jobs arround "working" in Endgame Raid content and completely neglect the rest, and to add salt (and darkness) to injury the Community just keeps on wearing their Tinfoil Hats and thinking that placebo changes on Potencies and simple hotfixes that should have been adressed YEARS ago are akin to the second coming of Jesus Christ.
We really don't think that though, it's just the stage we have all reached since playing ARR and realizing they're just not going to change anything at all, so the last thing we have is potency. We used to all have DoTs, and self Buffs, and all sorts of synergy, but the greater lower skill players constantly complained about them, so they've removed them.

We aren't ever getting it back; we're never getting Healer interesting dps back, we aren't getting back an interesting Dark Knight, and we aren't getting a semblance of real explainable balance decisions. They essentially stopped communicating completely after Heavensward. I'm really not even sure what the point of the forums is anymore really, as they don't reply directly and choose to ignore a massive amount of feedback or play ignorant.

If a dev or someone can actually reply to this explaining something, or just to show your watching, I would totally take my statement back; however, I'm not naive, and I know you won't. So *shrug*

The status quo of no communication will always exist in this game. Be thankful that DPS Jobs are at least somewhat interesting to play now, though that will likely go away in future expansions.
