I DON'T like Stormblood RDM

[SaberMaxwell]

Are you one of the ppl telling healers to play dps if they wanna do damage?
I main SCH and RDM to have some variety and i especially like the simplicity of RDM and i´m surely not the only one.
RDM didn´t change much for Shb and thats good. If someone is getting too bored of its playstyle he can just switch jobs; thats really easy in FF14.
But instead, they are asking for the job to be changed how they want it.

Glad to hear you main sch and RDM. So why do you want to play RDM like a healer, when you main an actual healer?

How do i want to play RDM like a healer, just because i think veraise is a good spell to have in casual content?
I like high dmg numbers and i also think RDM could use some potency increases.
What i don´t want is the job i like being changed, just because its not as viable right now in savage...

Nobody says they want to play RDM like a healer, but the red mage undeniably has some healing characteristics. Heck, by FF definition, it is a mixture between white and black mage. And yes, my main is healer (WHM), and yes, i like to play different stuff from time to time. I think it's nice to be a DPS who can pitch in with healing duty if needed. I could also say: Why don't you play black mage if you want red mage to be like a black mage? If you want pure DPS, you have 8 classes to choose from. If you want a hybrid, there is only the one choice. And now there are people who say "i don't want a hybrid, so make the hybrid into a pure dps. Screw those who want the hybrid because i don't want to change class even though i don't like it, i want the class to change". Isn't that pretty selfish?

just so you're aware, they don't have a problem with RDM having healer utility. they and most RDMs have a problem with job going inherently dps negative to use what should be half of it's identity
