See I completely agree that RDM is one of the most designed jobs in the game. I think it is right up there with black mage in terms of how well designed it is. The issue is that the utility is being valued much higher than it currently is. At least in raid content, the amount of body check mechanics gives no chance for RDM to even use its raise so the utility is just a flat zero at that point and the lack of self utility while being the squishiest caster means that RDM can die from Raidwide damage far easier than the other two. My Static's DRK just has a macro now for throwing TBN on me since he knows that even with BIS, I will need it for Raidwides.
