Red Mage: Potential adjustments

[MrAptronym]

... why are quite a number of the posts with changes trying to cripple the ability to be a rezmage? The strongest argument for including me in a party in bojah is that if it goes wrong enough, I can revive every single one of you.

I think that red mage is seen by some as having a 'rez tax' limiting it at high levels of play when outside of prog. If there is one thing I have noticed about the forums, it is a lot of players doing savage/ultimate content and that is what everything should be balanced around. (Or pretending to do that content for some? I am a filthy casual anyway) I imagine some also don't like the rezmage responsibility, but I think a lot of it is the sacrifice in content where you are kind of assuming everyone knows what they are doing and is performing decently.

The irony is that savage/ultimate raiders value that rez in prog (RDM has shown up in world first comps) but speedrunners think the game is not balanced around prog, but around speedrunning. Which is a strange stance to take, most pve games balance around clearing content.
