Red Mage

A true Red Mage wouldn't really work in XIV. They're great in single player FFs, and I guess XI (even though that was basically reduced to a refresh bot, which should be a WHM spell anyways)
There's no room for a RDM in the holy trinity, since they're a jack-of-all trades. I wouldn't even classify them as support unless you wanna go down the XI route.

They were MT, Support, medicore nukes, and enfeebler's in 11. And yes they can fit in here. Though at the expense of killing off their physical damage, since weapons currently only have magical damage or physical on them,but not both.

But yet again, they can be a dot dps that has small nukes, cures, and a in battle resurrection like summoner and to off set not having a pet, give them the ability to buff their party members or stronger dot's.

Because atm SMN is acting as a red mage with a pet. As their able to do damage and if need be support their party with cures and resurrection. When their DoT's are up on all mobs, they go to pepper nuking, which is what a traditional Rdm did.
