Maybe I'll lvl it all the way to 70 but hey.. BLM is BAE. Wish we get some buffs for 4.1 though..
Well, they intentionally made RDM very easy to play, I don't think that's a bad thing per se. Many players like jobs that don't require too much thought or optimization while still being effective. That said, there's still some degree of optimization and cd planning on RDM (swiftcast and procs management to minimize jolt 2 usage), it's just much easier than what you have to do on other jobs. Anyway, it's not like BLM has a harder rotation, but at least when you can minimize your movement and maximize uptime with your tools (triplecast, swiftcast, manipulation and between the lines) it does feel rewarding.
