RDM for me has literally the simplest rotation of all the DPS. RDM is RNG but good RNG if that even makes sense.

And I think everyone will laugh at this, but I find BLM hard to play. I just never sat well with me since my rotation will change every 10 levels after 50 drastically. BLM to me is very deep...and kind of confusing...*go ahead laugh it's fine*
NIN is hard only on the rotation because it's a very tight opener where you have to weave constantly in every GCD under a trick attack window. Learning NIN itself isn't difficult, but maximizing your DPS under the burst window is the tough part for most people until they develop the proper muscle memory for it. The other problem with NIN is that the moment you start your opener and burst window - you are inevitably stationary. TCJ will keep you locked down for the time it is cast and you don't want to leave the boss due to the number of weaves you have to do within the time frame or your damage drops considerably. That's also part of the beauty of using NIN though - people like the huge burst impact they give.


RDM is the simplest for the time being and very straightforward. It's also very fun to play and has good mobility. The DPS is on the lower end however.
