What's the best way to keep your MP up as a spellcaster?

[Duskane]

If you start raising only after healers are down on mana/dead it's already too late and the party will struggle.

now i never said when Healer has no MP ,seeing them struggle doesn't equal them out of MP and its completely situational how a healer acts on there own without the other healer and can easily sort out the situation and you the player should be able to asses the situation to see ifs its the right time to help them or not some healers would rather you keep DPS'ing on the boss then Clemency or vercure someone.

Stop worrying about DPS and actually help your party. That's what is the point of Red Mage. If you want DPS, go Black Mage.

this is something i really don't like about red mage that this is all the class brings a rez/cure and the be BLM/SMN if you want to DPS
so picking red mage doesn't make you a DPS? just some insurance for healers or a excuse for healers to slack off and just go "what ever red mage can pick them up". I really hope they just do away with vercure and Verraise same with resurrection on SMN.
