    Rdm atm fills a very specific role, and it fills that role quite well, but most people who have rdm don't enjoy that role. A rdm allows prog groups to make it further into fights that would have been wiped a long time ago for more opportunities to learn mechanics in certain spots.

    Their damage could use a slight boost, but the level of utility they bring could only be ballanced by being the lowest dps job. No other dps can redeem learning groups as hard as rdm.

    I think this is the major issue I have right now. I thought I picked Red Mage, but I guess I picked Rez Mage instead.

    Is rez dispenser a role that really needs filled anyway? And even if yes, is it a role that needs filling by a dps?

    The reality of the class is basically this. I get lost in it because I have a really good SMN and I converse with an egotistic BLM. But we do fulfill a unique role during progression and we do it well. Personally, I would like to see us with a chance of a dot being applied on one of our enhanced melee attacks and Embolden being more useful.
