    What he's getting at is that generalist design doesn't work. It never has.

    FFXI reinvented Blue Mage with the hopes that it would shut up the players that wanted Red Mage to be melee-viable instead of, as Vaymathias put so well, "the refresh/cure bitch with a sword". I'm just hoping SE can get Red Mage right this time around and save us from that fate.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
    Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)
