While I certainly do not discount Ultimate content.

You cannot judge Red Mage performance on content less than 1% of the playerbase is ever going to play while ignoring all the other content where they will most likely be playing where you do see a definite need for that Res. Lets not throw the baby out with the bathwater here.

While I do see people in Party Finder making parties for Ultimate content. Its still a very small portion overall in comparison to the enormous numbers running all other content. And there RDMs have a definite impact on any party.

I'd still take one any day of the week in any party I'm in when I play other jobs. Especially when doing Roulettes for either Dungeons, Alliance or 8 Mans. Because they really do save entire runs/raids. And if they're competent and its a primarily melee party all the better.

And that I think is the real problem here.
