Transparency in playtesting

[RylaBee]

It's bit of a obvious troll isnt it?

But for the fun:

RPR - is slightly dps taxed possibly because additional support they bring, but mostly OK-ish.
SMN & RMD potencies are hanging way back, than where they should be.
MCH - it would take multi-volume chronicles to explain, what are the reasonings behind how MCH performs, but I recommend you take it to Deepest Dungeons (Palace of the Dead etc), they are supposed to be great there.

WAR is dps taxed for its survivability, probably correctly, since its insane.
PLD is dps taxed, because someone at SE feels like it (also is great in normal content, can substitute healer in dungeons, they didnt asked for it, but whatever).

It's a slight lie from OP but not a troll.
You cannot clear P8S week one with the wrong composition.
Even bringing a MCH or a RPR needs the whole group to play near perfection and fish for RNG.

I am praying very hard for that specific group that usually run every content with DNC and MCH in their party.

MNK, DRG, SAM, NIN, and RPR all have personal defensive actions. I would hardly characterize the small regen tacked on to RPR's defensive as 'additional support', especially when MNK has the likes of Mantra without penalty.

Also, it's unlikely that jobs were designed to be balanced around six year old single player content. The real reason for these discrepancies is that some jobs are just a lot louder with their complaints than others. And that tends to get reinforced over time as those jobs get buffs over the others.

DRG has a personal defensive?

Oh boy, this tier shows how good it was to balance jobs. Certain jobs cannot clear on week 1, due low dps.I think the devs are doing timed gated content again. Each time, when it mid tier of savage it goes always to shit show. They should just balance all jobs around content. They got 4 months for that. They really need to buffs the casters (RDM/SMN) and mch changes already, Tanks do not need dmg they arent build to be dps. Only tank who need something is pld due they have nothing compare to others tanks.

Every class is built to DPS, PLD just had both worse damage and worse defensives so it gets hit on both sides

They should give you Keen Flurry back and deliberately dps tax you just for asking that question.

Only if keen flurry heals the entire party!

Already disbanded lol

It is never a good idea to combine an overly tight DPS check with bad job balance.
