Red Mages Needs a Bit More Complexity

[Sylvain]

Don't expect any change until 5.0
And no, no DoTs. Enough of everyjob having all the same tools.


What I'd like to see however in 5.0 is a trait that reduce the "recast time" upon using VerThunder and VerWind.
I absolutely hate that 2.4sec where we stand like retard waiting for the GCD to go off. It just breaks the flow.

It doesnt have to be a triat too, it could simply be a new rank to follow the "rank up" philosophy since a few spell always rank up every xpac. (However I hope they stop at IV for the BLM)

RDM is simple, and that's why it's so attractive. It's hard to screw up, and isn't punishing when you fail. On top of everything else, they have utility and mobility. It's the optimal dps job for people who want to dps and be useful, but can't handle the complexities of other jobs as well.

I'd enjoy that. I can see either that coming (but 1.5 seconds like the melee combo), or Verblizzard and Verwater as OGCDs.

If you want depth, how about something that just actually gives Black and White mana, or their spells, different inherent effects or mechanics, rather than leaving them as nominal categories only?
