Red Mages 6.5 Job Adjustment feels Insulting

[Rongway]

Summoner technically has melee phases until you hit 90.

No. Topaz Carbuncle, Ruby Carbuncle, Titan-Egi, and Ifrit-Egi do not require you to be in melee range. You can use them from long range without losing any casts. You get aspect stacks immediately on cast, not after impact. This is not the same as having a melee phase, where RDM can't leave melee range without losing casts.
