Machinist class is dead

SAMs are being drama queens. And SMN got a systematic change, so swift isn't necessary for a DPS increase. You can still use it that way for mobility but it won't be mandatory. They did increase the damage on it, too.
As for MCH, mobility simply comes at the cost of damage. You want more damage? Either be melee or get some fat cast times. It's simply how this game is designed.

Even with the SMN changes, it still looks like SMN will be behind RDM in Damage and Utility, which raises the question of what do they even bring to the table?
