    You missing the point but whatever and when I am posting on forums i am usually at work with some free time after completing tasks in transition to new tasks as details get hammered out. It really doesnt matter anyway because u miss the point of having the SCROLL OF WARP meaning I already have left anyway to go back to soloing. Being smart and being a smart a$$ arent the same things, you should learn the difference.

    Camate already said the devs weren't going to do this. :/

    Eh, I think folks are getting a little too bent out of shape over this. People are acting like they were truly expecting SE to hold out on their promises after all these years when they damn well knew better. Besides Temper isn't exactly news, SE said over a year ago they had made plans to increase viability in the front lines, for all we know this spells been in the works well before the job manifesto was released and they were just waiting for this level cap to implement it. Will it increase our abilities to the point where we can melee regularly, doubtful. Will it give RDM back it's niche in a party setting, no. Will this be the last update RDM ever receives for anything, definitely not.

    I would just cool your jet's, wait for the game to move out of that n00b hole called Abyssea, then all of you can go back to your previous life like the ToAU days. If Temper doesn't offer anything to RDM then it's essentially unchanged, just ignore it like RDM got absolutely nothing at all. Really everyone would have been like "Big Surprise..." if RDM didn't get anything anyways, but they're sounding like their dreams stomped on because of a melee buff that "wouldn't change anything" or they "would never use".

    On a side note however, I am finding it very ironic that people are so driven to put down the original RDM archtype, but take the new one given in the manifesto so seriously when SE even stated at the bottom that these ideas were not set in stone.

    Wow, what did everyone eat for breakfast?

    The only thing to worry about when it comes to Temper is if it will not even be worth it from not working in the offhand, enspells, not working on WSs, something weird, etc.

    This whole wave of "this is a joke", "get Devs who play the game", "RDM is not a melee", "what are they even doing over there", etc. Is really just uncalled for and completely ridiculous. So how about you get nothing next time and let RDM have more of a reason to sit in your MH. You have enspells for meleeing, and just because YOU do not like to melee on RDM or feel it should not does not mean the Devs or the rest of the community needs to cater to the current perception of the game and take them away since "RDM DUN MELEE GUIZ1111". Overall, reading a few pages from when they said it was RDMONRY I have to say the responses from you people (yeah! you people!) was rather pathetic and you should be a bit embarrassed.

    INB4 'adjustment manifesto said blah blah blah'. SE has said a lot of things about RDM over the years, and just because they recently said they envision (best enspell ever!) them making others "demigods" does not mean anything else they ever said goes out the window.

    This is going to be a self-target spell only and cannot be made into an AoE spell via SCH's Accession.
    That is some seriously epic fail...

    I'm pretty sure anyone who isn't completely insane can realize why it's epic fail.

    Tell that to the developers, not me. It may not be the same guys that took years to realize "hmm, maybe call wyvern as a 2 hour ability was a bad idea after all...", but their influence certainly lingers, and the fact that there's been changes in the developer team yet nothing of substantial change outside of more jugs for BST, avatar favors and abyssea as a whole tells me they're sticking to their guns. They're not going to suddenly say "RDM should get AoE versions of their buffs" (which is as likely as DRK getting getting changed into a tank job); at least, not in -ga or -ra form. Hence my support for the buff sharing/spread/copy idea.

    On a personal note, -gas and -ras don't make sense on RDM. Again, the concept of RDM shows it forgoes higher tier spells in exchange for martial prowess. -gas and -ras easily fall into that category.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line.
