Class is very squishy . Having a hard time fighting multiple mobs simutaneously in Heavensward. The Red Mage does not have high survivability. So if you can't kill enemies quickly. your going to die. Especially since the class is partly melee. At least that is what I am experiencing now. Maybe I am just not playing it right however.
Once you get vercure at lvl 54 it gets easier. Until then drain, as mediocre as it is, can actually be a life saver while soloing.
ok. I will try that. Thanks for the advice.
Use your chocobo and spec it to heal.
Having a healer Chocobo saved my behind countless of times, and not just as Red Mage :) Vercure makes things much easier though. Vercure + dual cast Vercure and you're back on your feet.
