[dev1102] So what is the Ultimate Spell for RDM?

[Duelle]

Refresh is still maximum potency and duration.

Not a bad thing. I like that the new standard for non-RDM mage jobs is "bring your own damn refresh".

Convert is still full strength.

Not a bad thing either. It means jobs subbing it have some semblance of MP longevity. Less on our plate, so we win on this one too.

I kinda know what you're getting at, but you're trying to make the variances in potency universal instead of looking at it case by case.

Fast Cast is untouched.

I can sort of agree with you on this, though I agree with Saev that Fast Cast should be stronger on RDM. I feel that Fast Cast could be left as is and add a trait on RDM at lv55 or so to make if more potent when casting spells without affecting recast timers any further, as per Saev's suggestion.

of course, id also like to see SE increase the group 2 merit cap and rework rdm group 1 merits while they're at it...elemental accuracy...wow...

I agree with this. Group 1 merits need to be reworked, and I'd take that a step further and turn the group 2 merit spells into scrolls and add in something else for group 2.
