Read the pinned comment for a couple clarifications of things I said because I’m bad at talking.

Couple of clarifications:
1 – I think Scattershot should've been its own entity. Toward the start I somewhat mispoke about it and it's confusing. Apologies. I clarify later in the video but still.
2 – Air Anchor existing as a battery gauge gain that's still a dps gain on multiple targets (up to a point) feels bad when we can't use the battery for AoE anyway.
It would be cool if mch keeps being selfish in terms of dps, but with more defensive utility to make it more appealing.
Some ideas : some sort of party shield that scales with one of your ressources without spending it ; another turret that acts like a sch faery ; a trait that makes tactician better compared to its counterpart on dnc and brd.
I just think that rdm getting its own tactician doesn't seem to hurt anyone, so maybe mch can get the same treatment at some point ?
Even as an extremely casual player I noticed that MCH is way too simple. Absolutely love the job and it pulled me through the game after I almost dropped it for good, but still. I legit went on a search for knowledge just to see if I'm missing something. Downloaded ACT even. I was paranoid about having too little to do and kept thinking I'm missing something. Probably cause I switched to MCH from MNK.
I get commendations and gratitude from healers for using Tactician whenever I think I should. It feels kinda fun to know I can just jump in, grant some mitigation and continue to do my thing. Too bad it doesn't help when I have to off-tank when playing with randoms.
That being said, I don't even know what MCH could get aside from more intricate ways of dealing damage or managing resources. If I seriously wanted to be some half-support with rng I'd play dancer or bard.
Also, I absolutely hate the shotgun. I'm this close to giving up and learning how to mod the abilities just to replace it. Weird delay and lack of impact are a huge turn-off considering how slow AoE is.
