* The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
* Design ideas:
Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)

honestly, idc about either one of them.
I do respect that red mage has been around since the first ff. In that way, red mage and thief both need to be around.
But I would like something different, a class that not the same as the other in usage.
Dark knight looks cool, plays boring.
I want something different. Something not like the other classes already in the game.
Musketeer does sound interesting.
Other things that would be cool and play differently, like chemist, blue mage, even ninja.
Red Mage would need it's own class I think, or be one of those hybrid classes that were mentioned that would require both CNJ and THM, but I can't see that coming for a long while.
Blue Mage I think would work well as a tank coming from the Gladiator class. Just give them an ability at 30 to learn Blue Magic from monsters, there's plenty of unique defensive and offensive moves out there that mobs use.
