So far I am really enjoying Red Mage at level 80.

One thing I would love to do some testing and see some others do some testing on is AoE. Because if you are Verthunder/aero II followed by Scatter/Impact your generation of black and white mana is quite slow, but really about the same as just scatter spam. Honestly for the most part I tend use Veraero II followed by Verthunder, then Verthunder II follow by Veraero, or whichever I need more of if I am imbalanced. This is 18 mana generation compared to 10.

So far, I think it works better because there is usually one mob in each pack that has more health, OR its just beneficial to lower the numbers of a pack quicker. It quickens your mana generation and allows you more Enchanted Moulinets during an AoE pull, especially since if you cap at your Black/White you can do 5 Enchanted Moulinets in a row.
