    No I can't say that.

    Honestly Red Mage utility is vastly superior to SMN in utility. Having tried to pull off the same kinds of things with Summoner that I can with Red Mage is an exercise in futility.

    Embolden is way stronger than Devotion as it starts off more powerful and it lasts longer. Healing with High level SMN is an exercise in futility... but dual casting VerCure as Red Mage does actually work well. Its a 350 potency heal but dual casted its 700, and even though its not as strong as a full Healer. Its way better and actually works to keep a tank alive in an emergency situation... SMN Physic does not.

    I can Raise 5 people in a party with RDM very quickly. 3 of them instantly because all of the RDM VerRaises are instant. Then with a Super Ether and Lucid Dreaming two more.

    I can't even approach that level of efficiency with SMN, I can only quick cast one of then its... whip out Titan to Stoneskin myself and hard cast Ressurection for an excruciatingly long casting time.

    I cant think of a situation where raising 5 people in a row was a good sign...

    I think I’ve seen that alliance in Copied Factory runs once or twice...

    (Side note: your character avatar briefly confused me from on my phone, and I thought “wait, I don’t remember posting that”. Clearly, you have excellent aesthetic taste when it comes to character design!)

    No disagreements here,

    I just happened to have been in "those" parties in Copied Factory before. You know the party full of first timers? You do kind of expect it since they're new, but sometimes they really get wrecked a lot. I've also done it in Ridoranna Lighthouse and Orbonne as you tend to see it there too.

    Sure your DPS goes into the tank on those runs, but what else can you do?
