This as a result means jobs like SCH or WHM who can sub RDM without much of a problem will now be even more powerful and RDM's new spells won't be unique enough to merit an invite over them in the eyes of many players.
You have to keep in mind that RDM has access to more "enhances enfeebling potency" gear and has Saboteur. The numbers over at BG show that a RDM w/ the proper gear and Sab can get -108 eva and have it last for 4.5 minutes. The best a SCH or WHM would be able to do is -36. I don't think the base spells need to be adjusted at all.

And as someone else mentioned, RDM really has a claim to be the best healer in RNG parties now. I really think we need to see how things play out over the next couple of weeks.
