Red Lotus Blade/Seraph Blade/Seraph Strike

Please give these Weapon Skills to Red Mage. There is no reason they shouldn't have them. Currently RDM can only get these WSes by using certain subjobs. Hopefully I didn't forget any in the list.

I'd rather Sanguine Blade, least it has a use outside of Abyssea.

Plus it's the damned job that gets the most benefit from it.

Sang Blade would be awesome on RDM natively. Would scale much better and RDM actually has a ridiculous amount of MAB / INT / MND gear, with some STR thrown in here and there. Would go well with RDM's hybrid nature.

But hey, Tanaka think's RDM is "a very powerful job" so we don't get JACK SH!T.

I do think RDM should be given the EX Sword Weaponskills, Up to Sanguine Blade, not including Swift Blade. It would be very nice.

Agreed, we need a WS fix, been far to limited.

It is a wonder why a weaponskill more or less named after a shade of red isnt allowed to be used by the redmage.

I also do think that devs for ffxi have had a rather twisted sense of humor.

"You guys want vorpal blade? Sure. *Releases "Vorpal Sword" to unlock deathblossom* Its a "Vorpal blade" see what i did there? Now to start making "Dancing Dagger" for bard. Hah i am too funny, im so telling the internet that one."

More than that: Weapon Skills with mods almost perfectly suited for Red Mage.

[Crimson_Slasher]

Im quite aware of what it is, but i mean it certainly is still noteworth about the name.

Additionally a job like BRD (High chr, decent dex) would be a dead ringer for dancing edge in my head. But the difference there in is the weaponskill would lend itself in name more to dancer. Where as Sanguine Blade, just sounds like something rdm would get, before even considering its nature and mods. I suppose someone will find it witty to come in and go "WELL BLUEMAGE DOESNT GET ASURAN FISTS!" but ofcourse that would be silly since its not one of the job's go to weapons. This being a circumstance where the name, effect, and modifiers all match RDM perfectly. I was just pointing out that even the name would imply we should get it.

Yep, the spell I hated learning the most... Either way it is funny how SE names things in that "slap you in the face" kinda way sometimes.
