It'd be like asking them to take a Hermit instead of a Nightlord. It'll only happen if the person has good connections. If this 3rd jobber thinks it's unfair, they have a very simple choice: get higher level to get the wanted skills.
I gotta disagree with you there. The only thing a priest can't do that a bishop can is res and genesis spawn, whereas there's a significant difference between a hermit and a NL's damage. A priest and bishop both have equally functioning heal, HS and dispel.

The only time I don't enjoy it is when I have to listen to attackers complain about their bishops not dispelling within 2 seconds of getting sealed (and usually it's because the attackers were too far away/the bishop had fallen off the ledge or whatnot). It just aggravates me because if their damage is so important that they need to be dispelled instantly, why can't they bring all cure potions and use them instead of wasting even more time to type out a complaint or jump around with a lock on their head? That's just my pet peeve.
Anyway, hardest worker/most difficult job at HT: seduce mule Bishop; at Zakum: a berserking Dark Knight (if they get bumped into the body, they're probably dead, they have to constantly cross the body to HB their party members and they have to heal/dispel themselves oh my!).
Firstly, I whinge about not being sealed only if I ran out of all cures, which I try not to do, or because I need to HB. >_< I like HBing regularly.
And secondly, berserking zak is fun, but easier than it looks. You only get knocked onto the body while you're blinking, so you have a chance to pot. Crossing the body is a pain though.
And people depend on DKs a lot, especially at HT. HB is important there, and you get yelled at if you don't notice a dispel (Stupid 95% success rate on HT's dispel). >_< Plus you gotta spam HB on dead people while they get res, hope you don't get sealed, mana burned or 1/1ed while you do that and so on. Fun!
