I'd be worried about giving RDM anymore party/raid utility since people are screeching for nerfs due to Verraise, Vercure, and Embolden. Something mild and just for the RDM feels like it'd be better.Make Verwater a MP restoring buff you can place on a party member other then self. Making it utility for helping others (like your healers, or other casters) but ultimately not something very useful to a RDM alone. Think of it as a caster version of Goad.
If you wanted to take inspiration from WoW, VerBlizzard could be a defensive cooldown like iceblock that grants you a good amount of damage resistance and inability to be affected by knockback/draw in effects while rendering you unable to perform actions.
The only problem I see is that there is no real room for more damage output, leaving the only options defensive and utility based. Regardless of what you add people will screech about it.
And honestly it feels like people do not understand how bad it is for a RDM to need to verraise and vercure, cause if they are doing those then they are not doing any DPS, and if they need to do them for too long then they are at the mercy of lucid dreaming cooldown before they can be useful again in helping take the boss down. Unlike a BLM who only stops dealing high DPS to avoid AoEs, then zips right back to their circle and resumes doing their damage output. Ideally no one is dying and the healers are doing their job without need of healing help, this makes it so that vercure and verraise are not so much party/raid utility but emergency utility/a nod to how the class functions in past FF games.
This leaves the only real raid utility to be Embolden and role abilities. Embolden also only works in physical heavy lineups since only RDM gets the magic buff.
