RDM the unwelcome DPS :(

Give Jolt 2 the same potency as Verstone/Verfire?

If you did then it removes some of the RNG aspects of red mage damage since you do more damage currently with more procs. Also it still would be better to cast verstone/verfire with this buff as those spells give you more total mana than jolt, just it’s only in one color.

I wouldn’t say buff jolt, as I think it’d remove some excitement from the procs if ur doing the same numbers reguardless.

Imho I’d really like to see

Acceleration get a 2nd charge. I feel this would help uptime of procs more.

And the passive impact returned, each ability has a chance to proc impact which makes the next ability generate % more mana.

And a small buff to the mana generation from verstone and verfire.

And manafication to become a flat + 50 white and black magic.

And a small potency buff to all 3 of our AOE abilities as our AoE feels lackluster in damage

*Remembers when Stormblood dropped and BLM was suddenly raid tier garbage because no utility*

As a BLM main, I can sympathize. It seems like we're Meta every other Expansion. We got lucky this Expac because the entire job system was reworked to our advantage. Now dps utility is a one-off when it comes to anything other than buffing each other. However its always like this at the begining of a new expac. Once gear catches up and evens out, people will be slightly less critical of party comp so long as the person knows what they are doing.

Still, my black little soul is slightly amused by this. Oh community, thou art fickle. AF.

Well 2 days til 5.08 it’s time to find out if we will drop further down due to the buffs to jobs around us or if we will get some buffs loool

Gonna be real, don't expect anything out the DEVs for RDM until 6.0, it's not coming and they're not removing verraise anytime soon. better to be productive and ask them to remove it later than to hope for anything with this mediocre iteration of what will always be the most overlooked and undervalued job in this game. Verraise is the reason we'll never rise above this and we need to convince them to kick it to the curb now so that they know what we want later.

Why? After content becomes farm or older everyone else puts out even more dps and nobody is concerned about the checks.

I've never seen rdm excluded without some ulterior motive (caster lead trying to monopolize loot!)

Kill time is always relevant, people want the fastest kills. It’s simple we are outclassed

Yeah lmao xD

Maybe I will just play a different job if I can be assed to level another job lmao.

Otherwise maybe it’s time to just take a break from the game for a while

Something they could initially do too is have: Scorch automatically trigger: "Dualcast"

Now this is something I could get behind.
