    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.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line.

    id agree with them being scrolls if and ONLY if the scroll versions were equal to the potency of they're 5/5 merit version.
    make sure you stipulate that, cuz i have no love for the devs in terms of how they screw over jobs so easily...and my cynicism tells me that they would make the scrolls the power of 1/5 merits...and do it in a heart beat
