    the trouble with red mage it's directly linked at how they have make the game soo far.
    - caster and physical class will use 2 different stats
    - spell have casting time for them forcing to a semi static gameplay for the caster, the melee in counter part need to be extremely mobile.
    - enspell will have small to no effect since the elemental resistance are not working like in other FF (if you hit a fire monster with ice it will not take double damage) then why use a thunder,fire,ice,wind... whatever the element you want since exept add damage it will have the same damage. if they add effect like slow/stop/poison/... most of the boss are immune to most effect... rending one more time the spell worstless.
    - the role, one jobs can't do multiple role and since we don't have a support role, what they will do for the redmage? damage dealer? what the point to get the white magic healing capacity?

    i can go one longer and talk about the lack of gears for a soo special jobs, what sort of mechanic they can add for make the class unique....

    the trouble with the red mage (http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Red_Mage) as we know it, can't be good for the game... the fact to be less good than specialized class will means no one will want it into a group, because actually.... what people look for is efficiency, what the point to bring a class that can do everything but master none? less dps that full DD class, less heal than a healer... the game as it's stand will only give use a Redmage FF11 the return... they need to create a new concept for this class and i highly doubt people will be happy, because they will need to get rid of something for make it stand as a jobs.

    ps: a jack of all trade is nice in a solo game, but in a mmorpg where the goal is to play as team.... it's.... stupid! everyone fill a role and a purpose... Redmage by doing everything will be like the paladin of wow 1.9.... a god.

    pss: by the way, i will not be surprise if they do something drastic like make the jobs for musketeer be redmage, change him weapon for a gun will solve a loooooot of trouble.
