That's the problem, some jobs were too "simple" for job gauges so they added some awful resource building mechanic that could justify their existence and ensure every job boils down to burst phases rather than having a balance of burst and consistent damage classes.
Did Dark Knight really need a Fell Cleave? Not really, but I guess if we're gonna give it a gauge it needs something to build up and spend.
Same with Ninki on Ninja.
And battery on Machinist.
And Chakra on Monk.
And Foul on Black Mage.
Thankfully Paladin managed to escape this and actually its burst phase was added completely independently of its job gauge! How cool is that?
