Red Mage use Casting gear!!

I think the trailer pretty much noted we WILL have a stance, even if by a different name. There is a stance where the sword is, well, a sword, while you hold that crystal in your off-hand, and then a stance where you tie the crystal to the hilt of the sword and it becomes a magic staff of sorts. Maybe the stance switching wont have a cooldown, maybe it will require some combo to actually trigger the change. I am curious what approach they are taking to that.

The weapon change can simply be accomplished in an abilities animation. Unless the "stance" is going to be something like forms from the monk. Having to hit say cleric stance to jump in and do a melee attack the back out and have to hit another stance to go magic would be tedious on a class that supposedly has rapid positioning.

Could be the stance is off the global cooldown and with no recast. That'd make it far less tedious.

Could be. Only time will tell. Could really use some more information just because I want to be impatient. Give it to me NOW. Sorry suddenly channeled Verruca Salt.

Assuming it is a stance and not just animation. It sounds like we are already going to be juggling chainspell/quickspell

Looks like an animation to me, as you can clearly see the cast before the RDM uses the light line to pull him to the mob.

That's what I think too.

RDM shares gear with Monk they all ready stated this.

Weird cause they did confirm RDM uses int, so I guess they are going to be basically useless since their gear won't have the stat they need on it.

Samurai uses monk gear, Red Mage confirmed to use caster gear.
