    I have some points where I disagree with you, let me elaborate:

    > Ninja: Nuke 1 hit kill LB

    This is factually incorrect. If you read Ninja's LB tooltip it executes only if you land it under 50% HP. Aside from that, it is the LB with the least damage from all the classes which have a LB that consists of straight-up dealing damage with the LB (RDM being the only exception, which is 6000 damage in white shift, and 12000 damage in black shift)

    I will not deny that the power to execute even through guard is a big powerhouse (Especially in frontlines) but you need to factor in that the Ninja is animation locked for the duration of the LB animation, where you have a window to shut down the ninja. The main strength of the LB is its ability to chain multiple kills with good team play, but still, with the 4 spammeable heals everyone has, staying under 50% HP is a risk you must be aware of when playing against ninja.

    The True 1-hit KO LB is Samurai's, which specifies in the tooltip it does 100% of the targets HP as damage.

    > White Mage: let's not forget the reset Cure 2 bug

    It was already patched.

    However, I do agree that Miracle of Nature (Polymorph) on a 25-second cooldown that cannot be purified is extremely strong, and people who use cheats like auto-polymorph make playing against a WHM stupidly frustrating.

    That's about it for the things I disagree with, to comment further, I believe the big issue with Warrior is the AoE Stun, if they changed it to a Stun on target and AoE Heavy for 2 - 3 seconds around the target, it would be far more acceptable. But right now it just feels BS when you get hit at the edge of the warrior's AoE range and get stunned for the full duration.

    And to add on my own feedback, I believe WHM's LB should work like Pneuma, build up into the LB and then shoot the beam. Why? because right now you get stunned first, then you get hit by the beam, and it just feels as terrible as getting stunned by a Warrior that is starting to jump at you, yet you are stunned from the start of the Warrior's animation.

    Let me explain the "nuke" part of my argument, let's take BLM's HP as a comparison, 48.000, so if you are 50%, the damage will be equivalent to 24.000 potency that bypasses guard. This is PURE insanity in a job that is already overloaded as it is and there isn't really a counter play for that except respawning. Samurai if you hit them during their defensive, it's your fault and you got outplayed, getting exploded by a Ninja feels extremely unfair, specially if you are on guard already and there are triggers that allow them to insta target you if you are in that HP range.
    White Mage, yes, I forgot they fixed it but the other points still stand, Poly is easily exploitable since no casts and un-purifiable. Not the skill itself but more on the nature of how Purify works, it should remove ALL CC, no matter what kind it is.
