Melee while casting?

[ManaKing]

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.

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.
