With there now being 4 tanks, 3 ranged physical, 3 casters and 3 healers who can can all share both their left and right sides, I think SE could acknowledge the possibility that the melee having 3 sets of left side and 2 sets of right side is a bit much. I just wonder what people think the pros and cons are of this system
The only reason I can think of for wanting to keep it how it is is that, for instance, with the tanks all having the same gear, it can make melds frustrating, especially for WAR mains who would also like being able to play other tank jobs and having no crit or DH melds in their BiS which makes playing the other tanks quite frustrating. This is a problem that the melee don't really have considering the Drg, Sam/Mnk, and Nin all have different left sides, so if you wanted a 440 SS drg, you can also have a 1021 SS Mnk
On the other hand, having to regear every different melee jobs comes with lots and lots of time, especially if you want to gear up a job that isn't a melee DPS. For me, I've been a Drg main since 3.X although I like Mnk and Sam and as much as I think 5.1 Nin is gunna be great, I like Drk/Gnb and Mch more, so having to wait until after I get my tanks and ranged physical to 470 before I can really start to focus on getting any of the other melee past 457 is frustrating.
Personally, I'd much rather start playing with 470 Sam/Mnk/Nin now than having to wait until almost the end of the tier to have them at 470 even if it means sacrificing perfect melds.
