Red Mage Proposed Changes

[IchiExorz]

These changes seem nice but wouldn't make me change how I feel about the class for now.

I personally love RDM when it comes to their playstyle. (I love caster & melee hybrids & magic users with swords.)
But I'm a bit disappointed with the class for now.

Sure I didn't want them to completely rework the class but neither of the additions to RDM spice it up for me.
2 abilities are "situational" quality of life abilities (that the class didn't really need) & 1 is just another finisher.

What i'd like to see:
-Scorch is cool but I wish it would look a bit more more flashy & explosive.
-Overall potency buffs. I don't think res utility should tax our dps by that much. At some point resses become kinda pointless even though it helps people learn fights. But that's all. Too many resses & you won't make any DPS check/enrage.
-An AoE Melee finisher that procs Scorch & Scorch being AoE.

I'd have liked something to spice up our rotation a little too but maybe i'm expecting a bit too much.
And having a class balanced around progression & not being worth taking farming/speedclear parties isn't really a good way to balance a class imo.
