The One Thing That REALLY Grinds My Gears:
People Dumbing Down Summoner To Be A WHM-1.
I Understand That As A TaruTaru Summoner I Have An INSANE MP Pool (Even Before MP+ Gear). I Also Get That My BP Timer Causes Me Not To Be Able To WS or SC As Fast As Say A MNK or SAM Could (Even After BP Timer- Gear). But Why Try To Make Me ONLY Main Heal/Buff?
Why Should I Be Forced To Level A "Real" DD Job In Order To Get Invites To Or Be Taken Seriously In Nyzul Isle Statics? I've Proven On Numerous Occasions That One Well Placed BP:Rage That Exploit The Mobs Weakness (I.E. Mountain Buster -vs- Magic Pots Or Even A Tier IV Nuke On The End Of A SC) Is Impossible To Gauge!
Now I'm Not Saying By Any Means That I Can Out Damage A DRK, SAM, MNK, Or RNG. Nor Am I Saying I Can Out MB A BLM Or Even SCH, But Much Like BST, PUP, & DRG, I Have Pets To Assist Me For A Reason. I'm Not Trying To Tank Or Take Anyone's Job, But I'd Like To Be Able To Use All My Talents And Resources Without Being Looked At Like An Arse Because I Choose NOT To Main Heal When WHMs Are Seeking.
I Didn't Spend Days/Weeks/Months/Years Raising Fame To Get All Avatars, Gil To Get All Spirits, Or Meriting To Raise Their Acc/Att And Lower My Enmity To Use ALL My Mana Keeping A Tank Alive That Won't Buy Decent Tanking Gear. I'd Like To Use My Gods For What They Were Meant For, Somewhere Else Besides Campaign Battle Or Soloing/Duoing Imps In Caedavera Mire.
And That's What Really Grinds My Gears.

there is a simple reason behind this. I'm not saying your job sucks or anything...or that you can't DD but...in nyzle you have 30mins
Lets say we have a rdm, sam, sam, mnk, smn, pld. So the DDs are doing their thing and your assisting in the DD side of it.
Floors: Kill all, kill ennemy Leader, lamps, kill all, kill spec ennemys, then NM floor
Now with a 1k MP pool you would sponge out your MP in the Kill all floor (if you DD all out)
On the enemy leader if your MP isn't out It's gonna run dry here
rest on lamp floor but a good nyzle perma will clear lamps asap before your mp can reach 200~300
(thou you have your elemental convert which can bring it back 250mp)
Again on the kill all floor your MP will suffer big timer on the reg onslaught of 20mobs etc
Then on kill spec mobs if you bump into the gears or flyers your mp gonna get sponge in support healing/ DD'ing/ and status removal (para, curse, poison, etc)
Then the NM floor, if your a good Mage you will have a either thingy on you and there ya go DD the NM
What im saying is... a nyzle perma would rather have a sam, mnk, even a warrior over a smn DD since your MP limits you (out of Mana after a hard floor, means you will be resting a good 2~4min). I've done nyzle with tons of jobs and Just to tell you a SMN DD in nyzle just isn't as good as any other (desired DD jobs)
