I can switch from mobbing to single target nuke with the press of a button and I have enough buffs to instantly raise my damage range by about 20k while providing other benefits too like crit rate, attack speed, invincibility.
Also, mobbing doesn't get as boring because i'm not just spamming one button. I can go around hitting things with Finishing Blow, then turn around, chain a bunch of enemies and pull them, then hit them with one strong Dark Shock. If there are a lot of enemies on a fast respawning map I can use twisted spin and kill everything. my reapers save me some time and effort. So mobbing is fast and easy.
It's just a bunch of things that work really well together that makes me love the job as a whole.
And let's face it, it's a resistance character. They, like Adventurers never get nerfed, they only ever get buffed. while all these new jobs that come out have their moment in the spotlight and then get nerfed beyond recognition later.
