So is the unknown. Sure it won't pan out, but it could.

If they give us a job ability that enhances our enspell potency by a significant (i.e. broken good) margin and give us Fencer at the same time you could do well with an Almace or an Excal. You also get to keep your shield.

While Fencer is not greater than DW III, RDM really doesn't have any specialized itemization for critical hits and TP bonus works on our best 2 weapon skills.

I just want to be able to steal enough toys from /RNK so that it will be a viable option along with /NIN.
