These are impression of Lancer. Lancer is a different and unique class then most of its dps counterparts, it wont have the omg did you see crit or have the range of a archer but what it will offer is a unique combination of abilitys and range too fight ennemies. Being a close to mid range fighter lancer won't excel at anyting but infact this is what makes it unique and important in any group they can buff and debuff the mob and combined with the right class can make for a powerfull debuff class or a powerfull dps.
Maybe you already want to play lancer although you are bit dissapointed at there numbers vs some of the other dps class in FFXIV. Gameplay will be more then just pushing out big numbers at least so far in the beta it felt like that. While you will have any troubles clearing any guild-leves with lancer.
And you will spend more time grinding and exploring Eorzia with this class then any other. So here something of Lancer: Cons which is Potential to remain in the shadow of the more dps oriented classes ( Maurader,Archer). And Pros is Potential to be a great debuffer or buffer.
