I hope that when they raise the level cap to 90/99, they lower red mages sword skill to 0. Then maybe rdm's will realize they have staves and nukes.
<off topic..kinda> People are so obsessed with the elemental staves being the only items casting mages can use. I understand the bonuses they add for nuking and healing, but As a RDM stuck using staves(my staff skill is lower than club so if I have to melee I am screwed) I would like to see an equivalent club brought in at 80+.
RDM may not have been made to tank but they are not meant to main nuke/heal either, they are enfeeblers that can back-up the blm+whm mages. I have found that there are situations where wands are better (+1 mythic for stoneskin, some enfeebs) because mnd and int bonuses, would be nice to get something more appropriate to the job.
