Hello looking to get my rdm tobe the best it can so i wanted to show what gear sets i use and see what i can to better i know im missing some gear {Novio Earring,Roundel Earring and maybe a little other stuff} over all i thing the sets are ok i use all HQ staffs and the Diamond Rin's have Augments of +2int and +2mnd ech any help would be cool thanx
Nukeing set
Enfeebling set
Curing set
RDM Set's
RDM Set's
Do you have a mnd potency set for slow/para(primarilly for outside abyssea)? If your really into rdm doing the ToM cure potency/ice dmg staves (soon to include thunder dmg staff I assume) would be a good use of time. Staves/mnd set is where I would start.
enfeeb, altruistic cape or int and mnd capes, estq. earring over the hecate's. af3 body+2 when u get it as well as the hands. MND rings feet and legs for mnd enfeebs. INT and MND ammo for the right spells as well. curing set seems fine enough, not too important.
what i use for INT based enfeebs, just replace INT gear with MND gear for a standard MND set up, altho having a 2nd macro with crazy high MND is smart:
Can check my page for more sets if ur curious for best/close to best possible sets.

ya im missing like 35 enf skill from what i can tell legs,hands, and that cape... stunx you think the AF3+2 body is better then just the af body for enfeebling? and yes Sawtelle i am working on ToM staffs just did not show them becouse they are not done
if ur landing your ***easily, you prolly dont need all the skill. you prolly wont need crazy high skill til the final endgame @ 99. for ***like slow and para you want 2 macros, 1 will full skill and macc, and 1 with almost MND in every slot for max potency, somthing like this old school set up i used to use:
that one is way outdated tho, but i think you can get the idea

ok cool thanx
well any one else with any other good info on gear i need should have?
Perhaps I am missing something, but why Eradico Mitts in an enfeebling set? Is it related to magic crit hit on the mitts?
its just becouse atm i dont have the AF3+3 hands

The RDM AF3+2 body would beat warlocks body for pure enfeeble skill set too.
The mnd/int+12, macc+10 and 10% debuff potency would beat it in every situations pretty much.
Basic rule of thumb is if the mob is resisting your enfebbles then you need to increase enfeebling magic and magic accuracy. If mob is not resisting then you increase mnd and int for max duration and potency. Mnd for white magic enfeebles, slow, para, silence and addle and the rest are Int black magic enfeebles such as sleep, bind, gravity and so on. Unless the mob is immune then you shouldnt have problems landing anything with the proper set up. Good luck.
as for the Af3+2 thanx i was not even thingking right that way cool info ^^
Can use Nebula Pigaches over Avocat/use Empyrean feet for Slow/Para. If you don't have Af3 hands try and get augur's/use teal/devotee's/errant for hands, anything is better than Eradico.
I just wanted to poke in and give you the two cheapest healing potency pieces:
1. Surya's (potency staff), this will make a ridiculous difference. You can always find someone else who needs one and it should be a staple for anyone who plays a mage job. If you took off every other piece of gear and upgraded solely this slot, you would be better off.
*The light day elementals are done on pixies in la theine, so don't let that stop you.
2. If you have zenith boots just laying around, it's pretty easy to get 2-3% potency on them with a few tatters (very common augment).

isn't zenith mitts+1 (matb+6, HP>MP 55) with int +1-5,magic burst damage+2-7, conserve mp +1-5 better? advice for outside abyssea pls, in abyss dint is capped anyway.

just stack all the mnd as possible for para/slow, enfeebling is not relevant since you can find almost in any items with huge amounts lol

well i think that's a yes
hmmm did not even thing about zenith mitts+1 thats a good ida ty ^^
Also, why do you even use mab gloves/earring in your enfeebling set? :P
But yeah, as people have said, focus on MND for slow/para, pretty much no mobs is gonna resist you now anyway.
Can easily reach +90MND now ^^,
And af3+2 body is allways better than af body.

everyone is forgeting 
for enfeebling

Yeah those pants are nice for gravity/bind/silence/sleep, but for Slow/Paralyze/Blind I'd much prefer af3+2 pants or augur's brais.
AF3+2 pants have no MND. Morri > Augur's > Mahatma

I use twilight cloak, eradico mitts, Af2 feet, Mab earings, int rings for Nuking set. Nashira lega for curing/enfeebling set.

Let's have an argument about it, since it was hard to assume I meant AF3+2 for blind and augur's for slow/paralyze.
only resion i had the eradico mitts in the enf set was becouse i was not thinking about +mnd and did not have any enf+skill gear
OP didn't know that AF3 body was superior to AF1 for enfeebles. I'm not inclined to leave anything open to interpretation here.

your right i did not know about the body thats how come im asking qustions trying to get the best sets i can ^^
