Feelings on FF14's Trinity System?

Tank will generally need DPS in all serious content due to the fact checks do actually exist, obviously as time carries on and tanks start doing DPS numbers with better gear then yeah 8 tank parties can generally do DPS checks fine... This is very dependent.

In normal duties I'm pretty sure you can just bring whatever, DPS will likely need a healer or tank but I'm sure you could do it with like a red mage or two if you dont aoe pull (don't know why you would want to do that) and a bunch of trial and error if you really wanted to, Healers don't need DPS for normal content even they can usually beat the DPS checks that normal content Rarely provides usually, they don't need tanks, I've even done like a few runs with all healers for the memes it's possible there, maybe not every duty but I know that its possible in 90 some dungeon content.

I Don't see how tank is a broken link, The design for tanks sure is bad, warrior is a key example but I feel as if any job can clear normal content with any comp as long as they have one consistent healing source even if it's suboptimal, The main issue is actually Bringing a healer isn't usually optimal in late game normal duty situations because the game doesn't really account for the tanks resources much and warrior's AOE healing cannot really be balanced it will always be the best AOE healing skill... on a Tank.

Personally I think it's more of a issue with how hand holdy normal content is that bringing any job doesn't really matter, but normal content needs to be hand holdy to a extent but just not at the rate it is. elephant in the room being Warrior which yeah I'm not going to defend warrior's design it's really bad and unhealthy to teach healers that they can just go afk because they got the funny axe healer tank.
