So... um... When is SE going to stop jipping rdm?

Rdm needs more stuff... period.

This couldn't be any further from the truth. RDM, by definition, has tons of stuff. Maybe it could use better stuff, but again, that's heavily dependent on the context.

Personally, I'm just ecstatic that they actually put RDM on the Espial Gambison set. It's really sad, but it's a small miracle when SE lets RDM use a new medium armor set these days, even though medium armor is totally supposed to be our bread-and-butter. All I could ask for is access to better medium armor sets when Espial is inevitably blown completely out of the water by something else.

On that note, if your main concern is that RDM isn't being invited to whatever the endgame flavor of the month is at the moment, I wouldn't worry about that too much. Something else is eventually going to come along and obsolete that event, anyway.

(Note: admittedly your post was a bit tl;dr, but I stopped reading completely when I saw you suggest that we get Haste II. Just . . . no.)
