Who #RDMHype Here?

So amidst a lot of complaining with the release of new skill lists and adjustments that the lifting of the press embargo has brought, I just wanted to take a moment to state how very excited the new details have made me for RDM and how very forward I'm looking to playing around with it.

SAM definitely looks cool, but just a bit convoluted imo with its two rather divided resources and varied combo routes. RDM by comparison seems like it's a lot "Cleaner", more refined and streamlined with how its skills play off each other. And I for one rather like that.

Between the tooltips and action demos, anyone else very, very excited to get their hands on this new Job?

Totally stoked!

SAME! Its totally going to be my new DPS main :P Can't wait to be wiping out endless spells and dual casting.

I've been holding out hope for a RDM since ARR, after we got our first new class, that being NIN. After seeing a lot of what RDM brings? Holy crap, I'm excited. We dabble in the White, with our own Cure, Raise, and offensive white magics. We dabble in the Black, with our offensive black magics. We get DUALCAST. I mean... DUALCAST. I can't put that in caps loud enough. THE iconic RDM ability. And we even get swordplay. All while looking dapper af. I've officially strapped rocket boosters to my RDM Hype Train at this point.

i threw out my caster gear after all of my mages hit 60. just spent the last two days grinding 5k poetics to replace each peice and upgrade it to i130. Also bought an encyrpted tomestone and 10 poetic tokens plus the upgrade carbon twine, so ill have aen i130 weapon to start with. Got my BLM from i200 to i269. Stock piled on Crit and SS materia. Made myself a RDM inspired glamour for when I hit 60. Ill be using an upgraded shire weapon, but ill probably glamour over it with the Zurvan wep. Made 50 sohm al tarts, 99 xpots of int and 150 drac pots of int. Probably going to make 50-100 higher tier ethers for clutch raises in dungeons. xD

Ill post a pic of my glamour. Not that anyone would be interested. @-@

I've been saying for a while that RDM could completely suck and I'd still try to main it. So far I atleast don't have to worry about people groaning when I show up as one atleast!
