Does the combat system need to be reworked?

Yes, let's go back to Stormblood, where people forced other people to change class or were gated out of content because MUh Metah!!!!!, please listen to this people.

Except that didn't really happen. 99% of party finders you'd see in Stormblood did not ban any job from joining. You had meta comps for the hyper elite, day 1 raiding groups and speed running parse groups, but that's an experience that those players actively sought out and were team-building on their own accord. The fear mongering of job gate keeping was based on anecdotal horror stories, not a rampant issue that was making it impossible for certain players to find groups to clear with.
