Which is so rare that it basically never justifies the role and half the time nobody adjusts and you just take the penalty

Two key mechanics I can think of for this were intemperance where the bad combo you were supposed to flex the MT and the ranged but 99% of the time parties would just opt for the tank to take the damage down. Same as whatever the mechanic was called in O11 where the ranged were supposed to bait the missiles, instead the PLD went and stood in the corner and pressed hallowed ground to ignore the mechanic

About the only time I can think of that phys ranged actually flexed based on their role’s strengths was BRD was first priority for kiting the renalds in T7 but that was way back when phys ranged had a very different niche in the party
