Red Mage is Range Combat? (Discussion)

[VanilleFang]

While true, some just work better that way. Think I ran FF1 with a Warrior, Thief, Blackmage and Redmage, guess who got stuck healing when it was needed? :P

That's still gimping your party. You would have even better off using a White Mage. The point I was trying to make is that if you purposely choose a RDM as your primary anything you are not nearly as strong as you would be if you chose a job more focused on that role.
