Red Mage: Potential adjustments

[Aghis]

RDM ist most boring and uninspired class i ever played.
That includes the 1 button spaming WoW frost mage from classic WoW. At least that mage had other things to do, when not dealing dmg (like crowd controle).

Starting with the cast animations.
3/4 of the spells look like, i would look when tossing a small ball to a kid that never catched a ball before.

You could delete half of its spells right now, and (almost) nothing would change at the rota. So why are those spells there? Just to fill up another collored Bar?
2 Spells to fill up a white bar and the exact same spells with another name (and animation) to fill up a black bar?

The black mages spells at least do something different. Fire for big bam but expensive mana, ice to fill up the mana. So it does not feel like doing the same thing.

Who ever managed to persuade quality controle at Square Enix, that this is fun and should be in the game, is polititian matierial for a countrys president

This class needs a "burn it to the ground and reinvent it" rework.
Ill max it out and never touch it again.

omg and im trying to be constructive here.
