People asked for buffs to what a RDM is supposed to be able to do. Whether people do it or not is irrelevant, not one RDM wanted other parts of what RDM can do to suffer.

Skipping the blatant rubbish about balance there was no reason not to allow RDM to melee on mobs that would have no adverse effect on them doing so while allowing them to "Buff the party to demigods." How do SE propose they do that with self-target spells only exactly.

When SE sets out to make a worthless spell, they take no prisoners and leave no village unburned.
Sounds about right.
