    Stymie has and always will be horrible as an SP ability. It's effect is that of a normal ability, and can only be used once. Even if enfeebling magic was the best thing ever, Stymie would still provide very little utility.

    The problem with Stymie is there's no middle ground to it. It's straightforward, and simple... it makes you land an enfeeble. That's it. There's no experimentation in that, at all.

    SE knows Stymie is bad, I know they do. But honestly Enfeebles as a whole is bad as well. I'm of the opinion that SE should just give up on making RDM so Enfeeble-focused. They've tried for years and it just hasn't worked out.

    I think they could make the job work if they went back in the direction of a mageblade job, the core of what RDM once was and has always been in other games. They did give us some great new melee gear in this update, which I can say did go with what I said in the OP about our only melee pieces being hands, very happy they made that change even if not the others which we still need. In the end, I gotta say, they could repair the job if they give it a shot, but we need a change, being stuck in this same old paradigm we have been in for years now with Enfeebling being our only real use, just isn't cutting it.
