This for sure if you can get the help to get it. For solo stuff it helps out a lot. Also look into the Dux armor set ( http://wiki.bluegartr.com/bg/Dux_Scale_Mail ). All you need for that is gil and pieces are always on the AH. It's a good start if you like to hit things. As a melee rdm i HATE seeing people running in mage gear swinging a sword. it defeats the purpose of being melee.
/Dnc is also a very good sub for melee. Waltzes help with curing and status removal, steps help debuff just a little more, and with the right timing you can use reverse flourish to self skillchain.
