and of course you have proof of SE stating it was mistranslated then?

It was invited because it had better MP control then WHM, and that was it. WHM now does it good enough so RDM no longer is welcome.

You never did endgame very much I take it. RDM was brought to cast Slow/Para/Refresh/Haste and crowd control (depending on the event), and fill in holes as needed which was generally healing or nuking, but melee was on that was also done (at least by me).

This is what a RDM did. Buffed Debuffed and filled holes in the group. It was invited because its enfeebles were needed and it was the best job for buffing. Now its enfeebles are not useful, and its buffs (except refresh II) are subbable.

Allowing RDM to cast all of their buffs on allies and enfeebles being useful is the only way this job will ever have relevance. Other wise you just bring BRD/RDM to do all the buffing, and WHM to stick slow/para.

Yes, from someone that actually speaks Japanese.

Yes, enough to basically make RDM Pink-Mage, and just a poor mans WHM.

RDM was never as good as WHM. I don't know so many think it was.

actually I do know why, it is because the majority of people didn't actually do endgame, they sat in EXP all day the one place where RDM was better than WHM, at least until SCH came out.

Nope, they didn't. You're still stuck in your PLD was useful in endgame stage. /sigh

Take note: It was a rubbish WHM, but that was irrelevant. RDM could heal well enough and control it's MP, WHM could not. As such WHM was near useless without a MP enhancer and an even worse enfeebler so. 1 space is better than 3 spaces for an enhancer, enfeebler and healer.

Endgame was done one way: The smallest amount of support and more DD's you could get away with the better.
