Red Mage: I am not a Back line class

[Klive]

Thing is, Red mage will be a job. The base class is something that can branch into something other than Red Mage. They already plan to have the classes have more than one job. So keep that in mind with your ideas. The base class should be something that can branch into something other than Red Mage.

Aye, the only thing I worry about though is if RDM becomes branched off of GLA that would be throwing a third (well 5th technically) tank like job in the mix, besides that most of their abilities would be focused on physical defense, hate control, and frontal combos rather than physical damage and enfeebling effects. It might do ok if RDM is built up off of PLD for advanced job development, then it would be a tank that has a secondary focus to help out the party and not seem so half-assed.

It just seems like building a new job and constructing it around the musketeer/fencer class with focuses on enfeebling and melee would be more beneficial for RDM in the long run.

1. Weaponskill 1 + (AOE EnAero + BarAero)
2. Weaponskill 2 + (AOE EnStone + BarStone)
3. Weaponskill 3 + (AOE EnFire + BarFire)
4. Weaponskill 4 + (AOE EnWater + BarWater)
5. Weaponskill 5 + (AOE EnThunder + BarThunder)

I'd say just change one little aspect of that, and give us a bar spell that's strong to the element that monster is. Like Fire is weak to wind so EnAero + BarFire.

would make no sense to use any of the classes for rdm it would be better to just make another class. They are not gonna branch every new job onto the older classes would be pointless imo if they want this game to last longer more classes = more stuff for ppl to lvl and more content for said class/job.

Edit Just cant see any class atm filling rdm's shoes.

Hmm, what other job can Fencer be?

Hmm, what other job can Fencer be?

I may have found another class that could utilize rapiers and Fencer abilities, the Elementalist.

I would guess Blue Mage. They used sabers which are a fencing weapons.
