Melee while casting?

[ManaKing]

Edit: Mana. Shut up. This discussion is significantly more productive than half of the other threads in this forum combined. Rather than sitting off in fairy land where pissing and moaning equates to results, we're discussing how this might actually be implemented or jury-rigged into existence if they actually decided to take a look at it. I'd appreciate it if you kept your nose out of it if you aren't going to contribute in a meaningful way.

Nice opinions as usual. Thanks for having opinions, expressing them while on the internet, believing you are actually capable of being right, and assume everyone that doesn't agree or think like you is wrong. I'm sorry you are rude and incapable of seeing that you are talking in nothing but opinions, but what i really don't understand is why you are on the RDM forums and posting about RDMs when you even admit you don't play it anymore. You don't even suggest ideas, you just sit on other people's discussions and act like you are a moderator or someone that is actually paid to be here. Stop being so condescending and actually suggest something or is being negative and getting in the way all you can do?

The obvious answers is obvious. You just build a condition on top of casting just like the devs did with Zanshin. If you don't realize why that is simple and would work you just don't really get programming. It's simple as pie and easy enough to implement that people could actually do it. The Devs are more than capable of doing this. The question is will they do it and is there anything that anyone can come up with other than gaining additional attacks that would benefit RDM more?

Job Trait:
RDM 30) Manablade- Attacks occasionally regenerate MP while wielding a sword.
This would activate around 10% and the amount gained would scale with levels (ex. Manablade II at 70).

Thank you, that is wonderful. If I had more mp to use while meleeing, I would be a happier RDM, especially outside of aby.

Enhancing Spell:
RDM 45) Subtle Sword- Self-only, potent Subtle Blow effect.
RDM 70) Boost-ACC- Does this exist yet? If not, it would help.
RDM exclusive, self-enhancing spells like Temper are the road to melee RDM...sorry, but it's the most realistic way to make it happen.

*How powerful are En-Spells right now? This should be the road to RDM melee, so a boost is in order if they don't make it worthwhile (worthwhile is just enough to not be wasting your time).

Enspell damage is still in bad shape. SE doesn't comment if we are actually getting Tier IIIs or merit upgrades at any point.

I would prefer if they consolidated subtle blow and acc+ on Temper. I don't care if I have to merit for it, it would be worth it for the convenience of just casting 1 spell.
