Job Trait "Quick Magic" naturally on RDM?

[Supersun]

Random thought though, excluding elemental magic and stoneskin are there any other spells that have an abnormally long cast time that you would wear fast cast gear for, that also depend on some level potency from the gear you are wearing at the conclusion of your cast?

[Neisan_Quetz]

If you could force it to happen in X amount of time via JA/for a small window maybe, random JT no. It's ultimately superfluous at best and a nuisance at worst as a random JT.

Fast Cast for everything with maybe the exception of barspells.

Quick Magic is dumb and would be detrimental more than anything. Or if you can control it you're just mimicking Alacrity and Celerity and stepping on Scholar's toes by stealing their JAs.

Yeah, Barspells are the only thing I don't macro FC into. Otherwise, all that little time gained adds up. Sadly, the moment FC takes the casting time of a spell under a second, you start risking not swapping in time in situations of lag.

Said like SCH hasn't stolen from RDM anyway.

It's too early to rejoice/complain just yet but a job ability "rdm_quick" was found in the update files.

I think it would be a good fit for RDM and should be removed from the SCH AF3 set and replaced with something more useful. . . a Taru can dream [And by more useful I mean that the randomness of the set bonus is really not helpful. Being a controlled JA makes it infinitely more useful.]

I'm a speculation/spoiler addict so I'll bite. I know you said "job ability" but can you verify? I've never done any .dat mining - can you tell from the .dats if this is indeed an ability or a trait?

Oh, I take no credit for the find and I'm just as clueless to the whole dat mining process! Sho over at BG posted the info. Here is the link:

Some nifty spells there too.

[Merton9999]

Yep, and looks like quick magic will indeed be a JA. Is that a new enspell at 1:37? If the BG page list Sasaraixx posted has these in the same order as the video (leaving out the BLU spells), it looks like it's labeled "stri" with the following white magic spell "Brave1".

Too early to hope probably, but holding out for two melee self buff spells for RDM. I shouldn't say that - they will probably be for PLD and SCH. At least they aren't BLU though, like 75% of that video...

I'm excited about Curaga V though, it looks nice.
