VerAero/VerLighting/VerStone/VerFire/VerHoly/VerFlare
should really all be the same skill that changes based on what mana you have higer and atleast do slightly different things because they all currently do the same thing with the same damage potency and again... boring.
Finding the balance between them could be something else.
The class needs help. Stop Fanboying like its ok.
I say this a a person who wants to play the red mage and sees its potential.
