RE: Any need for priest/linker?^^
In PvM, I have a 99 esma linker too, and even I can't see how can I possibly best a sniper in *ANYWHERE.* Even against Tendrilrion who blocks 10 DS shots every 10 seconds, and I'm going against 0 mdef, I'm still outdamaged. Why pick you when there's much more snipers out there and they are far easier to find?
Linkers are only ever going to make it to parties for skills outside of esma. Esma is destined for solo purposes, or act as supportive abilities as you get dragged along in parties for your other abilities.
It's like bolts on profs vs FS profs. Linker faces the same problem, only esma eats up so many points and is so exhausting on SP that you cannot pretend to be "hybrid esma/support build." You are either one, or you are the other.
More strange facts: FS Linker is only wanted on the far end extremes: WoE or super high end mvp/dungeon runs like i-tower. Anything slightly lower tier, the linker is really not needed except to maybe support some gimmicky builds like helping out your friend's new battle sage.
