The Problem with Red Mage . . .

[Demon6324236]

New gear is good, some of it is even great like Vara Brigandine, however I would like to point out that some past gear is still better for other jobs such as BLU. The new DEX head for instance is really nice, but at the same time it seems to just be a Oce-1

In terms of use at least. So to give my opinion on the gear. I love that we are getting more great gear, it shows the same way as it did when we got Bregos, which is great gear as well, however for many jobs the gear from VW & AF3 are still top tier gear, and since we were left out of it, I think that is going to hurt us for a very long time, until something comes along that is better than those, and RDM is allowed to use.

Access to gear is the primary reason RDM lags behind so much, the second reason is no access to DWIII and Bergressor at the same time. RDM's can make up for part of that via Composure + Temper + Gain-Stat + Enspell 1 (all assuming 500 enhancing) + Dia III but your still lagging.

GIVE ME (with chainspell) DEMI OR GIVE ME DEATH!

Retired RDM, it sucks that bad, really.

woo turns out I double attack a lot since that is where all my proc are. Oh well Enspells are still broke. Still like my excal. Have fun equiping your RDMs for DEX and crit.

Dear SE, fix enspells when next expansion comes out.

All we can hope for is a fix when Runic Fencer comes out.

Inventory space is still a big issue on RDM

[Demon6324236]

Agreed, running around on my RDM I often have as little as 10 spaces to use for anything, which is highly limiting and makes it hard to do much on it because even if you can do something, you don't have the room to hold the spoils.

[Neisan_Quetz]

Inventory is an issue for many jobs, I rarely have more space than that unless I'm on war and don't need to proc multiple weaponskills

SE needs to look into it or doing what they did with HQ staves and consolidating redundant gear into one piece
