    So what is the problem with MCH? Well to begin with compared to its peers, why would MCH not have some sort of utility? Bard has paean and minne and repelling shot. Dance has en avant, improv and curing waltz. Why none for MCH? This is an actual scenario that happened to myself during transition to god king thordan and for some reason, the bleed ate 1 tick of my shield and I was the only person who died on that transition. Just because of one tick of bleed. None of which would happen with DNC with improv shields and regen or BRD buffing the shield healer with minne. Even if you think that having 2 utility and 1 mobility skill is way too much, BLM and SAM have manaward and third eye respectively. Literally MCH are the only class that does not have any sort of mitigation on themselves (Don't even start saying tactician is mitigation because its just a glorified Feint/Addle for phy range). Why? There is no literally no harm in giving MCH some sort of shield, sprint mitigation, or healing on themselves. We are literally being punished out of nothing. Even if you want to look at the source material for MCH (Edgar), theres still Noiseblaster, Flash, or Debilitator that they can use for additional utility. Maybe not in form of shields but inflicting damage reduction on the enemy.

    Then there is also a myriad of other QoL problems that the dev has not listened too since ShB.
    1) MCH Ping issues
    2) God-awful AI for Queen and also how Queen snapshotted buffs.
    3) Awful AOE rotation.
    4) Reassemble being a glorified kaiten that messes with crit/dh buffs
    5) Wildfire being one of the weakest 120s cd, that is exacerbated with ping problems and don't synergize with crit/dh buff again.

    That is currently the problem with MCH. This is under their philosophy of making Phy Range the worst dps job period. If they want to continue down on this road, then they HAVE to fix the problems most MCH have been saying since ShB and don't response with "We don't know that MCH has ping problems"

    The discussion of Phy Range not having enough damage is another design philosophy that I would support but considering that they are unable to listen to criticism so far with just the QoL stuff above, I wouldn't put much trust into it.
