PLD changes; thoughts?

[Rithy255]

I do want to know the changes personally, but I've been waiting 4 months already to see how the new PLD is at this point IDM really waiting a few more days, I'll be critical of it if I dislike it and I'll praise good changes (like adding another defensive). Thing is these changes are needed to make the Job good, but I'd argue the main issue is we need to rework the "burst" meta so Jobs don't all have to be about "Bursting" I just think such a major change mid expansion to bursts doesn't sound likely.

I think honestly the main issue is Raid buffs, they're for the most part not even fun or unique to use outside buffs like astro cards, dragon sight, dance partner, bard songs. I think we need to generally actually rework/remove a lot of raid buffs so they can be more unique to the jobs that provide them, it will also allow comps/jobs to work more outside of raid buffs, but this strict 3-5% (or crit buff, idk it feels the same as a normal dps buff anyway...) 120 Raid party buff thing, it's really not healthy for any Job design. Honestly? like who at this point thinks pressing your 120 to synch up with other jobs makes the job *more* interesting.
