Says you. Would be nice if we had a magic/elemental ws though...

Says anyone who knows how Elemental Affinity/TPing for damage works... instead of nuking with a good nuking mainhand, or meleeing in a good melee offhand, you're using something that generally sucks at both, half-assing it at its finest.

No, you're just a WHM in a fancy red hat. For all the negativity you spew on these threads, hearing you talk about being a RDM actually surprises me.

EDIT: As an addendum, really, just being a RDM you are nothing but half-assed. We all are. Anything RDM can do, any other job in the game can do better. Even enfeebles, BLU and WHM can shut us down with those. Heck, enfeeble's aren't even necessary in most current content.

So really, RDM is nothing but half-ass at it's finest; it's just which role you are choosing to half-ass when you play.

Why would you use a MAB sword when you can use a magic defense down sword.

You can get some ridiculous numbers with that thing.

Seriously, Blms practically have a mini-orgasm when that effect is up.

Of course to actually make it worthwhile you have to pretty much single wield it and drop your enspell.

So i halfass RDM is keeping up refresh/haste cycles, debuffing mobs, making sure people are buffed if they get dispelled, helping cure DDs that the whm can't hit at once?

And aside from Refresh, how is it that the WHM can't do all the above? Why can't the WHM hit those DD's and you somehow can?

EDIT: Oh wait, WHM can just /rdm and get Resfresh 1 AND Convert too. So yeah, how are you out-doing the WHM again?
