    I agree that smn is a rigid stake and with the next expansion it has to achieve a lot to be freer. But consider that it seems strange to me that the designers, who pushed the dps to have buff windows of 2 minutes, do not allow buff sync during fights. So actually it actually has a desync problem on smn? Or are people lazy and prefer to play badly? I would check (ok that sucks third party sites and blablabla) fflogs and look at the logs of the currently strongest smn, look at the scores of his party mates and especially his timeline. Well you look at it and all the buffs are in sync. Is it black magic? no, they preferred to play well and experimented rather than be listless. In the first week I proposed on the balance discord channel to move buffs to odd minutes and they took me for crazy, saying it's better to use buffs when deciding melee. But if you do your math, losing nearly 4k of pure potency under buff (the delta between burst under buff and the best lego phase under buff) * nbuff is not worth anyone. It's all loss for smn and it's all loss for other players. Having said that, in this case I would not point the finger on the designers (who have other faults), but I would do an examination of conscience.
