I like RDM because its a spell caster with a sword but I also like it's more of a "support DPS" just because you want it to be a selfish dps or have the same support options as current doesn't mean everyone does, personally i think RDM other then needing a damage buff is fine as it is, I really like the job.

Should we just have every job be pure damage dealers, but also complain about "job diversity"? I feel like giving jobs support options is generally what can make certain jobs feel more fun and different to other jobs, this also makes jobs such as Black Mage tend to stand out more as a "pure damage dealer" which I personally like.
I know what you're saying. Everyone says how Verraise is a great utility but the thing is a huge DPS loss AND delay the melee combo since we don't get white/black mana. Imo RDM should do more dmg than SMN not because of rotation complexity but because Verraise is SO punishing for a utility and should be compensated for DPS loss. SMN has an insta res every 60s if you spare Swiftcast for it AND it's way more mobile AND don't have to stay melee range to use certain skills(besides Ifrit's dash) AND have personal shield. RDM is the squishiest and the least mobile caster.
