What is RDM all about?

[lllen]

I agree with Autobot. In todays world of FFXI doing and trying all jobs to 50 is not a bad idea, plus you will have alot of available subs...lol.

I started 4.5 years ago as a RDM, it was my main job, but I used a sword/dagger and by lvl 30 started Nin and had 2 swords/daggers. It was a time when RDM's were cure haste refresh whores, so I kept my dd side in Campaign starting at 60. But I was due for a big wake up call at my lvl break....Had to fight Maat and didn't know how to do it magically, had a lot to learn fast and of course RDM is the hardest of the Maat fights.

I have since opened all jobs, some great, some good, some ok, a couple are still lvl 5. Rdm is still the love of my life, but it remains in the MH with full Af3, some +2 stuff. Whm and Blm both now 95 people love them, Nin and Thf I live on them when not in party. Blu is a great job also, magical and dd all in one, getting the spells was fun, also something to do back when no one wanted us. Now we can proc and we can get into parties in abyssea. I have 91 Rdm (last of the list to lvl up), 95 Blm, Whm, Blu, Thf, Nin, Sam, working on Mnk, Bst, War.

Just remember, combat and magic must be capped, you can lvl faster now but learn the job, learn to use your abilities and stay as capped as you can....one day my Parry will be capped (I keep telling myself it will happen).


p.s. don't judge a job by its lower levels, I swore I would never take nin past 37...omg I love it now. In fact I said not past 37 about a lot of my lvl 95 jobs. By 50, you will have gotten a taste of that which is yet to come.
