Please, NEVER nerf RDM!

"work around"

Dual Casting is the entire point of the job, and almost all of its skills are based around that concept.

A RDM that's simply using their spells will outdps a large portion of the players, simply due to how powerful they actually are and just how easy they are to pull off. Red Mage potential dps isn't much higher or lower than any other job in particular barring mch and brd, the problem lies within how easy it is to achieve that damage in comparison to those other jobs.

But should RDM have lower DPS because it is easier to play? That will never be balanced correctly throughout all the classes. RDM should be doing less than BLM though by a larger margin.

No.

Black mage should have higher potential DPS to offset how glued to the floor it is. In actual practice it should be about the same, factoring in movement, mechanics, etc...

Or they could stop making 95% of boss attacks with a range of more than 30 yalms, so ranged actually means something.

Because you don't like when people post thoughtful responses to your very silly OP?

What you have posted amounts to..."I want it to stay OP because the class is something I like" to which the response has basically been "But the effort/reward structure of the class is far to skewed to reward and is not in line with other classes"

I fail to see what is wrong with that response from the forum.

Because people don't agree with you? People have their own opinions and their voicing it doesn't make them trolls. Most of the response have been pretty civil.

RDM is highly mobile, doesn't depend upon positioning for any of its weaponskills, and can hold its own damage-wise with a ridiculous simple rotation. To top it off, it has Cure and Raise. Yeah, it needs to be tweaked.

You people just dunno a good class when you see it, that much you all made clear..
