Can RDM be put on eminent staff please?

I don't think it's a huge deal. As Jakuk said, RDM is put on an easy to get ROE staff (Skirmish staff), which is pretty good. Tbh, if you aren't able to get that weapon without a staff (you can get a sword or club in the meantime or a weaker staff), you should work on other stuff before worrying about a...really bad staff. RDM has bigger things to worry about than a 117 staff it doesn't even need.

We're put on the best universal staff in the game so I'm counting my blessings!

Maybe, but I think the request is mostly from the standpoint of a returning player. I originally quit just after SoA was added (essentially, before the were iLevels), and when I came back, there weren't really any options to immediately catapult up to everyone else's level. I was actually in luck since some old friends were happy to let me leech off some of their successes, including one who practically gifted for me an Emissary...or two. But even then, the progression of gear took a while (reforged AF/relic->Yorcia Alluvion armor->Escha Zi'tah->some Escha Ru'Aun). Throw in some High tier battlefields with useful, but rare, items, and it was challenging but lonely few weeks.

I'm all caught up now (or as of taking a break this past September), but without much handholding it can be a struggle to come back from what is essentially level 99- you'll be soloing for a while. With more mage gear, I think a returning RDM can make a more modest contribution to content- melee has always been a tough sell, and even tougher when your gear isn't up-to-date.
