RDM's Patch Notes?

[Fynlar]

Have you done any Extreme content before these RDM changes?

Yes

You prouve that it was meant to be in the core rotation buddy

I'm not the one making statements on how the ability was "intended" to be used. Burden of proof is on you, "buddy"

No job since the start of ARR needed to micro manage TP or MP for their standard rotation and with the new change it's proof enough.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's wrong.

I know there's been times on NIN even without using AoE where I was hard up on TP if I ever forgot to use Invigorate, and I'm sure MNKs (among others) could have claimed the same at some points, but for the most part, if I *was* remembering to use Invigorate, I would be okay, or at least okay enough to the point where I usually wouldn't dry up before a fight was over (much like how I found RDM to be pre-5.05, just replace Invigorate with Lucid).

Ran myself out of TP on PLD numerous times too (before we even got any AoE ws) in a long enough fight, and PLD had no Invigorate to bail themselves out with. Requiescat/Holy Spirit did a lot to alleviate this.

Your stance in this thread is bizarre, honestly. Your basically Principal Skinner'ing it up in here. "Am I out of touch? No, it's everyone else in this thread, the people who mathed it out and determined that RDM is MP-negative over a long fight, and the devs themselves, who are all wrong!"

I'm not saying that over a long enough period of time, RDM couldn't possibly drain out their MP (again, barring when they die or have to res bot). I'm just saying that there aren't really any fights like that in the game, so it doesn't really matter. The vast majority of fights in the game either aren't that long or don't have 100% uptime (allowing for MP recovery). Usually both.
