[dev1024] Job adjustments - RDM

[Daniel_Hatcher]

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.

Doesn't RDM have -ga's on older FF's? now I know they were rather powerful on the normal RPG's but they were no different to other spells in that they got low tier -ga's but not the higher ones.

The thing about that is though, they didn't get their own spells, it was just a mishmash of low level magic (like Tier 2 or 3) that whm and blm could use and the tradeoff is that they could cast two spells in one round.
