Anyone else wish RDM was a PURE support class?

[ADVSS]

Nope. I'm just sad it's seemingly missed every bit of awesome synergy that would have been possible between its melee and ranged aspects. I like all DPS to have a bit of support in varying ways; I don't think RDM needed to or ought to have been built around that premise. (I'd be cool with Bard being a bit more broadly support focused if and only if Ranger or some similar competitor became a thing, offering point-support instead. MCH could then diversify into the more versatile engineer it always should have been, as not to feel like just a burst splurt and lull job.)

CHEER UP BROTHA we know how balance works, but so far im not unimpressed, I think RDM will fit well enough. Im a Classical Purist btw, and i mean nes classical, So you can imagine how I felt since beta how BLM was done, and yet before HW I mained BLM got the zeta and all. I know you might want so bad for a support only job Im going to give you some realistiic hope first of all, they have to remove the cross system. Excpect this in 5.0, pay attention to what happens with the cross role system too. From the descriptions and examples ive heard and thought about it seems they might push toles more to tank. healer.dps. and then finally make a suppoty. Yhat can definitley exist in the future. But we are at baby steps right now, so dont lose hope. Remevem only a couple years ago bard could res the whole party with its lb3 now it just deals crap damage becayse
