Thoughts on class changes?

Since oddly enough there is no discussion about it yet, and the patch notes are out.

RDM buff is so tiny, I don't know what else we could have expected.
BLM and WHM AoE nerfed for less than 4 targets. Yuppy.

RDM changes are honestly a joke. +20 potency to 2 CDs and +20 potency to aero/thunder. This won't be enough to bring them even up to BLM, or SMN (post nerf) And then SMN being too strong... So cut 5 potency off the 2 dots. I honestly don't know where they even get their information when it comes to the balance. But I guess RDM is probably intended to suffer cause they bring the instant cast raises and heals as needed for 'support'

Will have to see how it plays, but yeah they're never going to let RDM get even remotely close to BLM numbers, lol. It needs to be on par with SMN though, rough similar utility and such. Guess we will shall see if those SMN nerfs are enough, may seem small but we keep those dots do add up on the long run since we keep them up all the time.

But RDM shouldn't ever be close to BLM. It has group actions/utilities. As far as the distance behind SMN - thats because SMN is still OP.

rdm shouldnt "be up" there with blm, a PURE dps. RDM has a ton of utility. (now smn on the other hand lol)
