Job Trait "Quick Magic" naturally on RDM?

[Hyrist]

PLD already has a recent Enspell buff, this is why I rule it out currently. Comparatively RDM is overdue for a bone in the enspell department, especially when you factor Enspell II's to be in the 50-60 range.

Brave is more likely to fall in the hands of White Mage than Scholar if it was solo. But I'm more of the feeling that "Brave" is going to be a version of "Haste II" that people have occasionally mentioned, in which case, you'll likely see both RDM and WHM get it.

I agree a new enspell makes more sense for RDM, I'm just going with cautious optimism given the longstanding rule of "Give everything that makes sense for RDMs to other jobs."

I'd actually be surprised, or maybe just extremely disappointed, if Brave were a single-target spell for WHM and RDM. Having another spell to cycle on either of those jobs for every melee would spell job retirement for me, unless it made Haste obsolete. Given to SCH it would still be yet another cycle spell in addition to the recently added ones, but at least you could AOE it. Self-buff for RDM and/or WHM would be my ideal.

RDM, BLU and SAM aren't overdue for crap.

Such a brilliant insight! Tell me how you came to that conclusion? (This aughta be good...)

Looks like Brave is one of SCH's 2-hour spells:

The best solution to this in my opinion is to let us have the option. Clearly a trait is going to screw things up for people. While some don't mind this others would rather things be consistent so we can macro our gear in properly. Give us a piece of gear that has the trait on it. If we want to use it we can macro it in, if we don't then we don't. This way we can control the issue and limit it to only the spells we'd not mind insta-casting. The JA that they are giving us sounds like a gimp version of CS for one spell that doesn't instant cast so much as reduce casting time and doesn't affect recast but there is still a chance it could be used on others which I suppose is alright but @.@.

Considering that in the JP version it's called Quick Magic, this is a done deal. Don't know why they chose to go with a needlessly fancy name for the NA version of the game, really.
