Path of the Sword Choice [SAM or RDM]

[Aquaslash]

Samurai 100% It's what I wanted to be in the first place

Guess not much love for the Space Wizard Job.

RDM for sure here. I rarely play melee or physical classes except when wanting a change of pace every once in a while. Something about spell casting just suits me. I'm operating on the assumption that Red Mage will become my new main going forward, with the caveat that if I suck hard at it then I will remain as-is with SCH/BLM/SMN being my triad of mains depending on what I feel like at the time.

RDM as I never tried it EVER in Final Fantasy and I mained SAM/MNK during my XI time.

It has been difficult for me to make a solid choice between RDM and SAM since currently I am now moving more to Red Mage.

Two of my most favorite play styles for Sword User Job is being released in 4.0 being Sword/Magic type and Sword/Speed type.

In the end only one will become my Main Job.

I am curious how the Red Mage LB3 may be because I picture it using Magic Exploding Swords.

More likely an all out barrage of magic spells.

Right now,I'm main Mnk/Blm so my gears can be shared with both new jobs.
And who knows ? maybe in Stormblood I might change both of my main to SAM and RDM.
We'll see.
Gonna try SAM first though.

I said having both MP and TP on a class/job that doesn't even use them is pointless. like Nin and Summoner for example. Nin doesn't need MP so why have a bar? And Summoner doesn't need TP. There is no point.

Oh! you are talking about a UI's interface related stuff.... Well yes, it does not make sense for a blm to have TP, same for a war.... but i guess this is cause on old 1.0 we were able to give a fire to a war or any other melee job...

But since we have to stick with it for a very long time, i guess we dont have much choise... Just hope that they dont make any close jobs anymore.

I can't speak for the MP bar. But you use TP for Sprint. So if SMN didn't have TP they could not use Sprint.
