I know it's easy these days to forget that there are levels between 30 and 99, you may notice from my character info that I am currently in the process of leveling RDM. Old school. I'm fighting VT-IT mobs with trust npcs and I'm having fun doing it. The entire point of leveling up is to grow stronger, to get better equipment and better spells. This inevitably makes old equipment and spells obsolete. We pretty much all agree that tier 2 enspells are currently not better in general then tier 1s and it just frustrates me knowing that when I hit 50 and got Tier 2 enspells I was getting a side-grade at best.

I suppose success can be measured in inches.
I don't understand why you think being able to lower an enemy's resistance is only useful while leveling up. But you are entitled to your opinion. Since I already let me views about the En-Spells 2 be known I'll just leave it at that.

I just wanted to let you know that as a Red Mage you have a lot of powerful spell upgrades in the way you prefer to look forward to. Distract 2, Frazzle 2, Haste 2, Flurry 2, Gravity 2, Shell V to name a few. So I wouldn't let the tier 2 en spells frustrate you. You have plenty of spell upgrades in the pipe line. Not to mention you just got Refresh 2, which is about as nice of a spell upgrade someone can ask for.
