  1. Red Mage is too much of a mini game but Dancer is more fun with lower damage overall and RNG to use a ton of moves? đŸ€” I mean, it’s all preference, but it sounds like fundamentally you didn’t really get RDM. The mini game you mentioned isn’t even a thing if you know your rotation. Similar to Dancer, you’re going to be watching your bar for sure, but it’s no different from waiting for feathers or your other moves to proc, no?

  2. — did you just swift cast a jolt at 2:25?

    "you screw up the rotation then you're fumbling and it's over"

    — How… can you screw up more than wasting an already procced Verstone or Verfire? that's not even that bad. Anything past that is just you needing a 2 button wow rotation to function. This is one of the easier classes even. You press one of 5 buttons, 2 of which glow, and then press 3 buttons in a row when they glow. a child can do that.

    — You don't even use your Corps off GCD, you don't use do your melee right either, you mangled that entire fight. I just watched a trainwreck while you went "no its the game" Your melee at that level should be Ripose -> corps -> Zwerchhau -> fleche / Contra if up -> Redoublement -> Displacement -> Continue ranged rotation, if RNG fucked; use Manafication to salvage a second rotation and a new combo; and fun fact, with dual cast you can inch towards the boss between casts so you can save corps for the mid rotation melee. You wanted a second melee combo and burned your only saving grace of buying time for acceleration, which on it's short cooldown would have been back up by the time you did your second melee combo had to used it at the start.

    Sorry but you just suck bro. It's not red mage, don't pin it on the class.

    i'll give you something constructive, go watch a Desperius FFXIV rotation guide for whatever class you butcher next.

  3. Literal Veraero and thunder can crit for 60k. Scorch and verholy/flare 80k i feel more powerful on rdm than dancer as they play the same. Dancer doesnt do damage unless you hit your buff windows to use your feathers. Saber Dance is way more rng than anything rdm has

  4. Dude, are you crazy? Lol. You didn't think redmages dealt out enough damage, so you switch to…. DANCER??? Since when do dancers out dps redmages? Are you just not playing the class correctly? The mini step game that dancers have to play every two minutes in order to keep up their buff is super annoying. And they don't even deal any damage while doing it. I always felt so useless whenever I have to stop dpsing and dance in order to reapply my buff. Redmages are constantly dpsing even as they build their gauge. Those nukes they throw out at the end of their combo are no joke. And they can swift rezz for days. Can't even count how many times I've saved my team from wiping by rezzing everyone. You're missing out, man, and don't even know it.
