I think maybe their thinking is that you already have a job, so the phantom job is like your other set ability in V, but it doesn't feel that way to me and clearly to others as well.
It’s just grating in regards to how actions in one job are useless in the overworld while actions on another job are particularly strong anywhere. It’s night and day. Ranger has the worst of it because they’re more built for Forked Tower than anything else, and honestly they should’ve gotten a use in Overworld aside from just Crit/DH Buff every 2m. Having other jobs mixed together is how SE can win here.
