Red Mage is top tier - [job effectiveness = player skill]

No its even worse than what I said.

Because if what Gunther says is true... then this is the only log ever submitted from me. So now I have even MORE reason to believe this happens more than was previously stated.

Out of all the instances I've ever done, the ONLY log from RDM that made it up to FF Logs was my very first fight in Leviathon in Eden where was was unfamiliar with it and died twice during that fight so doesn't even reflect normal DPS.

I have even more reason now to doubt the FF Logs database and what it contains.

What about copied factory? 2 kills in the past week, both grey 9s. Do you have any idea how badly I need to play to show up on someone's live log as grey on an RDM?

I died on this fight and I was still 89 percentile. Granted my RDM has much better gear than you, but not enough for there to be that big of a difference to the point you're dealing basically Heavensward damage, if that. Again no-one is out to embarass you, or specifically make you feel like you're a hopeless player, but it's incredibly frustrating trying to discuss balance with someone who at present, clearly has no idea how to play the job in the first place and lacks experience. That's all people have been trying to tell you from the start, but you don't get it and still think you're good when there's no clear evidence you know how to play this class, and that's why people are poking harder. And I don't even care how good someone is at this game when discussing balance, providing they at least put some data behind their argument. You don't provide any, and the best anyone is able to get for you in pretty much the only measurable metrics possible - isn't very good.
