Why the other casters need buffs and Red Mage does not need a nerf.

[KaiSunstrider]

Hello everyone, I just wanted to post this thread to hopefully derail the "RDM can do all of these things, nerf them omg" bandwagon.

Thanks for starting this discussion. Just in case you are new to the FFXIV forums, I am sure you noticed that there are character post limits. You can submit a post and then edit it to get past these limits if you want a singular consolidated post rather than having to make 3 to get all of the desired info in.


For my input on the topic at hand, I agree that some of the Bard changes have skewed the caster result. The change to foe req and battle voice have now made bard viable in almost all comps because there is no longer the limitation to "caster only buff", but now that bard buffs are more homogenized to fit more classes, the once powerful classes are now even more powerful.
