As for the debuff issue...I hope that with Arcanist coming out as the king of debuffs, it frees up the THM elements to be truly destructive in power. It seems to have worked with CNJ already (Stone lost its magic evasion debuff, and instead is more powerful in the alpha footage) so it could work with THM and it's Ice spells as well.
BLM had an Ice wheel? IDK


:P
