Hello,

I love the information you are supplying here, it is very helpful and kind of you to do so.

But to touch on the topic of gear swap: I used to be an RDM in Vana'diel, so I was doing a LOT of blinking. However, here, it seems this is not a realistic option, for a few reasons:

1) Changing gear here is MUCH slower
2) Changing gear does not always work (I use macro... sometimes it equips boots.. sometimes it does not..) So it can not be trusted
3) Parties run around all the time (they may not wait 2-3 seconds for you to change gear before casting protect).

I understand #3 can be worked on with a party that knows how to work together and co-operates well (but is still troublesome in pick up groups).

But for me, #1 and #2 is so bad that I am hesitant to do any swapping.

Given this (and to tie into the point of this thread) what are your feelings on being a non-blinking-WHM yet still being able to perform well with Enhancing Magic?

Typically I see two WHMs in a party.. maybe one option is one is focused on Enhancing (buffs) and the other is focused on Healing ?
