The Problem with Red Mage . . .

[Demon6324236]

IDK, maybe because they finally gave us a good WS based off mage stats? You're turning into a broken record. Wait for new gear patiently, or don't, but saying we don't have enough DEX gear and crit support for CDC again really isn't changing anything.

WSs are pointless without the TP to use them. To TP we need TP gear. We are constantly left out of the Light DD sets of which are built very well for just such TPing. Also as you point out alot we don't get the 1 trait that would make all of our mage gear give us the TP to use. This is where my problem stems from so far as many gear sets. As for the DEX gear & crit situation, notice I am simply pointing it out in other posts, not trying to say we need more and they need to give us more, but rather that it is the cause of CDC falling behind others. I ask you, could you honestly tell me Req would be very good for RDM if we had access to Athos?

The sets I listed are the gear sets of which are used alot because they are some of the best pieces of gear in the game, above all others, and yet RDM has gotten no access to them. Ignoring CDC, just simply in terms of gear it puts us outside of that grade of gear which scars RDM's ability to melee in the long run, because while jobs like BLU will always have Thaumas, Oce/Toci's, and Athos to fall back on, RDM doesn't have the same kind of gear, if we only get half decent things in the future, we already only got half decent things in the past, so we are kinda screwed. And as for it not changing anything, the only way to make sure SE knows we do not like things about what they give us, is to point it out every 5 minutes.
