Melee while casting?

Perhaps something could be done between the animation and fast cast to allow RDM to get back to swinging again. I don't know if i'm for the whole swinging while i'm casting thing. Something in that just sounds broken. Your suppose to be doing something that requires your attention. Being able to attack while doing it doesn't sound like your not putting a lot of effort into the spell part and it would just come out half~assed. Being stuck in the animation for a spell you already cast seems like the best place to fix the problem to me.

You mean like casting a lvl 75 BLM spell even though you are lvl 95? Single Target instead of AOE? What part of casting a Tier IV sounds like it should require a lot of effort?

I mean if we want to talk about half~assed then we can just talk about RDM lvl 76-95. What's the point of RDM if it is just going to be an inferior mage piece mixed with an inferior melee piece and have no actual job synergy to substantiate it?

I play RDM because it is fun, I don't play it because I delude myself into thinking that my job is actually equal to anyone else's. I just happen to have friends that don't mind having Phallanx 2 around. I would love to reward my friends with an actual job that I like playing that we could all take seriously.
