Thought about RDM's utility

@ Leidiriv

Problem with this all is Red Mage as the job itself is not that great of damage (so many groups do not bother to take them)
I still stand by what i said in that people make embolden sound much stronger then what it is. It should boost both Physical+Magical damage for party members

Perhaps instead of this change, Embolden could double as a mana generator as well similar to DNC's Espirit buff. For every action used by allies gives the RDM maybe 1 mana of both White and Black, so with it lasting 20s that's a decent window to generate mana passively from others. Of course RDM still needs some potency adjustments but it's just an idea to make Embolden a bit more rewarding if your party is unbalanced for it (i.e. too many casters).

I would not oppose that either, the job just needs to be better with it's utility and damage. Atm it is kind of painful to play while compaired to other jobs
