It's Ignoring a major reason why you would bring a Red mage over a BLM which surprise people do, The DPS check was just extra hard this time why people wasn't playing RDM as much.

I'd argue really that RDM/SMN should be lower then Phys ranged. (All jobs should in general be closer to melee dps).
If you want RDM to have BLM dps then remove battle raise from both SMN/RDM if you want raise you shouldn't be near BLM, I'm sorry but giving people no reason to play Black Mage isn't the solution
Strawman. I never said anything about RDM doing BLM damage. You had to invent that I did to have any ground to stand on. Also if you think that phys ranged should do more than RDM you are wrong

You're also doing the same thing, strawman. Also Embolden is RDM damage, the raise is irrelevant in regards to damage, so that leaves only Barrier as actual utility. Meanwhile RDM has the worst caster movement and is harder to play than each phys ranged and SMN. Dismissed
