RDM and the Utility Tax

[Zyneste]

Lol, not two posts later.

They fixed a symptom of the Raise tax, which was MP restrictions, but all honesty it was probably an accident that RDM had such an MP nerf. The devs are just trying to get MP costs to be easier to read at a glance ending with "00." Thats why they were adjusted to 5.0 levels. Lucid on a 1 min CD with an OGCD intensive window kit is what made MP feel so much worse, that and we had been so accustomed to refresh at a high level settings. They went on the gracious side of ending with "00" and gave RDM a huge MP buff, to the point where we can throw raises out like candy. We said "If our mp is so bad, how can we be a progression niche caster, shouldn't we limit raise to a cool down and.." Dev response: "MP BAD. WE FIX OK."

RDM overall is in a much better spot and no one can deny that, we're good at what we do again, but our overall caster identity is always going to be split until they make changes to raise. Until then we are once again, the prog-mage, which is allot better than the "Raise twice and be oom all fight"-Mage.
