I agree that RDM's are in a good place, regardless of people's thoughts on EMBLODEN OP, that is their only raid utility. If they need to nerf it down to appease fine, but it doesn't discount the clunkiness BLM's and SMN's have to face with their rotations. There's no doubt BLM's should dps highest for casters because of their terribly locked down turret playstyle that mechanics intentionally force you out of. I've heard how punishing SMN's have with their tight rotations with aetherflow. Future content will account for whatever QoL buffs jobs get. There is not doubt that caster's will have a re-balance in patch 4.05 but I seriously don't think nerfing potencies and raid utility on red mage will address the issues BLM's and SMN's face. Still if they do nerf RDM it's for good reason.

But that's just me, coming from a bard that use to spit out raging strikes for all our casters, and switching to RDM.
