Machinist and any selfish dps should be in their own category while jobs like dancer and bard should provide high rdps thru buffs. I'm asking for phys ranged as a whole to get buffed as a whole. Bard and dancers buffs should provide the group with so much damage it equalizes to selfish dps like machinist or viper instead of the current system where ALL 3 ARE ABYSMALLY WEAK. All dps should be near equal and they aren't. Selfish dps should have comparable adps to eachother while supportive ones have similar rdps to eachother. The rdps of support jobs should be equal to the adps of selfish ones. It's not at all asking for bard and dancer to suck. They fundamentally dont belong in the same subrole as machinist. They should be strong without bullying eachother out of the one slot that they shouldn't even have to share.
    I don't really see any other important utility on BRD/DNC over MCH.
    Raid buffs are already included in the rDPS scores. If you want to balance that persnal DPS around how strong the raids buffs are, you need to look at aDPS or nDPS. Else you're counting them twice.
    And utility? What hugely strong utility do BRD/DNC bring that justifies lower rDPS contributions? MCH is right in the middle between BRD and DNC of what fflogs counts as "healing", which includes +resist and -damage statuses. And those scores are all quite close anyway.

    And sure. The whole of the rphys role is in a terrible spot. Fully 100% agree with that. But specifically targeting MCH as the singular rphys job that has it bad, or even has it worse than DNC/BRD, is not correct.
