In all seriousness, the only thing that the trailer did was make me hate the Red Mage even more. It's a complete waste of an interesting class and concept and I'm boggled people will accept such a generic lackluster design...
How can you say 90% turret when over 50% of its abilities will be instant cast, allowing for a greater range of movement? Stand still for 2 seconds to cast a spell to proc chainspell and you then have a whole GCD to move around until you need to again, weaving in Swiftcast if you -really- need a lot more movement. RDM will be a highly mobile caster. I'm not sure how it, 'Lacks Originality,' either. Can't say I've played MMOs where a class was designed around mechanics that combine in a manner like this.
