Red Mage could use some help.

100% this. RDM is probably the least balanced job right now. it does less than Bard DPS, brings less utility than Bard and Summoner, and has less effective mobility than Summoner as well. Summoner does what RedMage does several times better. the only thing a RedMage has over Summoner is quick raises and even that is lackluster considering RedMage's piss poor mana regen.

They need to buff Red Mage's DPS/Utility by a considerable margin and Nerf Summoner overall quite a bit to even them out.
Summoner should never have been allowed to have so much in their kit while remaining so powerful. it literally just breaks the existing casters.

And to all of the people that are going to argue for RedMage's raises being good for prog. That doesn't justify the job being outclassed by every single DPS in the game in every other category.

Here's some visuals if you don't believe me.
