SE's stance on Cure V

[cidbahamut]

Well they are right, in the case that theres a reason why WHM is the only job with Cure V, or VI. Its main purpose is healing. RDM is enfeebling, SCH is enhancing and buffs. simple as that.

Thank you for that. I needed a good laugh.

You see it as a laugh, but indeed that was their original intention. Gotta see inside the box to grasp it. Yes RDM has nukes, buffs and the like. SCH has mostly everything from WHM and BLM (so essentially, RDM too but then some) BUT, you have to look at gear, and merits and such. they are designed to enhance the job's purpose. RDM's merits are designed towards enfeebling, and despite how you wanna spin the elemental accuracy, its main purpose for that is to help enfeebs stick better. Yes RDM gets Phalanx II as a merit, upon which I should "somewhat" expand upon my original statement, and add that RDM is for SELF enhancement, with slight capability to enhance others, albeit at an increased mana cost. RDM is a self sufficient job, but partywise, they're almost reduced entirely to enfeebling; light, weakened nuking; and tossing out refresh/II, and phalanx.
