It's pretty obvious to the naked eye that Summoner lack support that RDM have, they lack damage that RDM has and worst of all, they have anti-synergy which I have to deal with in P2S because my group DPS optimize pretty hard. It is to the point my two options are to either take all raid pieces because I need a ludicrous amount of spell speed to have Bahamut up after the downtime or that I just swap to Red Mage. It isn't like I can't play Red Mage at top level but that's telling you how little my options are.

Pointing out Red Mage is straight up the superior progression pick in this thread isn't a threat to nerf Red Mage. It's a plea to have this unbalanced meta fix. I swear Summoner isn't the only bad job right now. Many are suffering but I'm a main caster so I want my role to be balanced.

I believe a long cooldown on the raise button and making it instant would fix the problem. It would allow recovery without making Red Mage straight up broken in progression. It would allow them to have much more similar power to Summoners.
I love to see a long cooldown rez for all casters just so we can stop talking about the rez tax. Personally, I wish I had the option to switch but I don't since my group already has an rdm this tier. I was given a choose play smn, blm, or one of the phy range. I really dont like BLM and the only phy range I like is dnc and it's not in the greatest place right now either. Also I have been a smn main since I started seriously raiding and I love the job, just want to feel like I'm helping the group and not just sandbagging them.
