I’m so glad the job aesthetic is the way it is, because as the person in my friend group known for her obsession of rapiers and especially women wielding rapiers, having a job fully suit that feels amazing to me. The whole caster spell slinger aspect feels nostalgic as a magical fencer was an idea that as a kid always captivated me.

@@ich3730 I think both Red Mage and Samurai were barely touched because they felt like their kits mostly just worked moving from Stormblood to Shadowbringers. They really did a number on some others. The older jobs have some real clunk that RDM and SAM just didn't have to deal with which is why some stuff got glossed over during the transition and was only sort of addressed later, like adding charges to Accelerate or letting you eat your Sen for Kenki for Samurai so you could at least start off with none (for Higanbana) before a dungeon boss.

Swift is no longer used on cd for damage in most fights, as the mentioned drift can cause you to lose uses of fleche / c6 - which is more damage than the swift gains you. (Because of how long fights are generally) Use just for movement / fishing procs, trying not to use it so much that you lose a fleche. Amazing guide!

Hey Misshapen thanks for that section on mobility of casters. I could never really articulate or understand why I felt that RDM felt harder than BLM when it came to movement intense situations beyond 2 GCDs. I'm talking about maximizing dps in harder content and not just surviving a mech. Sure moment to moment gameplay RDM is easily the most mobile but if a mech requires a ton of constant movement and you can't or didn't line up your melee combo you're out of luck. Of course enchanted reprise is an option but you rarely ever want to use it if possible. This is even tougher when your constantly in PF where as RDM you are kind of the default fill for melee or caster position depending on who is in the group. I recently switched over to BLM after hitting a legitimate wall in E11S PF (no static lol) and wow it feels so much smoother. The labbing of the perfect sps and building the mental enochian timer reflex was a severe learning curve, but damn this class just feels good.

one thing to note about Verholy/Verflare. say you have less White Mana than Black Mana, but you already have a Verstone proc and the mana are within 9 of each other, use Verflare and fish for that Verfire proc. (the opposite also applies) Since you'd already have the Verstone proc, you just overwrite said Verstone proc. DON'T DO THIS IF IT CAUSES A MANA IMBALANCE!

The reason for the styling of the weapon is that in previous ff games the stick of the rdm was as a melee class that used ver spells to change the element of its attacks but since outside of the masked carnival and debuffs from some boss mechanics attack element doesn't matter they decided to change it to caster with a melee burst but keep the iconic weapon from past games

There is no world in which I am blasting my Corps a Corps for 130 potency of "dps optimization" when it is so useful for getting in for my dps rotation or moving out of a mechanic that isnt near the boss. What am i losing? 0.01% of my dps? For vastly superior and more comfortable gameplay.
