    I wanted it to have access to virus/e4e and swiftcast, and went from there basically.. I did notice that ACN/THM would be a bit lacking in abilities to choose, so opened up miasma as well (single target heavy and an extra DoT).. I'm thinking to open up Sleep/Scathe from THM as well, meaning probably the meta would be Virus, E4E, Swiftcast, Miasma, Scathe (and sleep instead of E4E for pvp).

    Because of this, the job would be able to make a distinction between physical and magical mitigation, which can be up at different times (and would for magic damage not suffer from other jobs putting up the immunity at the wrong time).

    I think I need to nerf Astral Field a bit tho.. 300 potency shield that can be doubled on demand is OP :P, so I think I'll nerf it down to 100 heal potency (200 pot shield, 400 with Astral Alignment).

    I see, not sure what the potency difference in aero is compared to miasma, but it would be an option, as well as stoneskin/protect. Though I get why youd go acn instead for that reason. RDM classically had the white magic and black magic command, though it didnt go up to the higher levels like flare, holy - but you seem to have a grasp of it without having played older iterations of the series when reading these ideas threads i dont really pay too much attention to potencies cause they can always be adjusted honestly
