Why are our group 1 merits so bad?

You mean I would actually have the option to have all 6 spells without gimping myself!

Besides. I earned like 6 million farming Enspell IIs and you only need like 25k for those.
I'd enjoy the chance to earn 60 million this time

I personally like 5/5 ice and 5/5 earth acc. It means you can concentrate on MND for slow/para, MAB for bliz, and less resists on break/bind too. Nice when soloing

Not an issue, all the spells at capped potency for a small price, that's a good thing.

Plus it's not like they couldn't actually go through and refund people for spent points, but really, I don't see the current system changing, so it's really just wishful thinking.

Heh you ASSUME capped potency lol

But, Seriha hit the nail on the head.

A spell bought is always capable of being capped to full as long as you have the stats, merit spells for the most part are not.

Change it to effect then, opens up other jobs getting them and maybe a tier III line then.

I would happily pay a million a scroll for all my merit spells. It's less than I have to pay for any newer, better equipment.

And honestly you could take all my RDM category merits and I wouldn't complain. It's not that hard to merit. You could slam it out in a day.

I wouldn't expect them to refund the points, but I wouldn't mind grinding merits again for actually worthwhile traits and boosts.

I'm just looking at it from the perspective of other MMOs where if a class goes through some sweeping changes, they usually refund skill points.

I don't even care about other MMOs, I will pay for spells and re do merits. Not implying that you wouldn't Seriha. Just saying I would be more than willing to do the work to make my RDM complete even if it was more than other jobs.

completely agree, t1 rdm merits need to be redone. (you can take my vert merits from my cold dead hand.....)

MP is rarely enough of an issue that I'm riding my vert timer. I did Wind+Ice Accuracy for extra acc on bind and gravity.

Also I like the T2s. I like that you have to choose what sort of RDM you will be, and what spells you will be best at.
