My point was that it is typically considered an easy rotation, and to be fair it's not the hardest rotation, but it is extremely button press heavy. Which would tie into the overall topic of the thread Button Bloat and Patch Balance. So yes, Mch rotation can be called simple, but its also one that can easily be messed up by a mistake or ping issues.

If we are going to compare jobs based on DPS or functionality, the MCH rotation being simple and needing you to press more buttons per minute to be somewhat close to the average of the other jobs, is a topic that falls under balancing issues.
Apologies, I skimmed over your post too quickly and misinterpreted your point.

I never understood why MCH has been placed at the DPS it is at. I agree that it should deserve to be higher.
