RDM was lackluster in every FF game once you hit the midway point, get off it's *** already.

So did WHM and BLM, I don't see your point.
WHM and BLM are both useful depending on the game. RDM was always crap.


xi used to be the one place rdm shined!
That's just a bedtime story :(

I cant think of a FF game where a dedicated BLM was lackluster.

Runic Fencer. Nice. Better than onion knight for sure!

Perhaps this might just be the mage tank?

It makes sense considering how Runic works, a magic-based tank...

So PLD gets (further) sidelined too. Yay!

Add more, fix less.

I also heard it was a tank job from someone else watching the stream. That certainly would be interesting. Can talk about how PLDs are outclassed again!

The kanji they've used are exactly the same as Mystic Knight, were Celes and the character in tactics was actually ルーンナイト in JP which explains the translation error in the latter game.

Also since they're saying it's a tank job, I think mystic knight is a more fitting name..

It's actually not. Mystic Knight is 魔剣士, Rune Fencer that they've announced is 魔剣士.

Wait until the English translation comes out before we start throwing out "what this job is." I am sure we have people who speak fluent JP but they arent contributing.

I must say I am very interested in the timeline they are showing. Have to wait about an hour!

Vivi never became useless. Not even against Ozma.

AoE spells were king in most random fights and using Reflect to increase your spell damage was the best way to beat a lot of the tougher enemies.

Why are all you peoplecomplaining "RDM is Dead, this and that" when you do't even know one damn thing about it yet. Stop complainining until 2013, when, you know, it's actually playable, then you can see what it does. Like, seriously...

You're right, I missed that. Still, the meaning is identical.

New expansion? Lets *** about RDM.
New zones? Lets *** about RDM.
New jobs? Lets *** about RDM.

How about shut the *** up about RDM?

I'm only joking around about the demise of RDM but the fact is that no other job has fallen so far, so fast.

Paladin comes close but RDM? Looking like a washed up sports star at this point.

Not even close to lackluster.


Final Fantasy I - Warriors did more consistently and didn't die.
Final Fantasy V - SMN did more, Mime did even more again, Freelancer was even better again.
Final Fantasy IX (At the end) - Doomsday was consistently out damaged by any of the 9999 abilities.
Final Fantasy X - Black Magic was pointless and physical attacks with elemental weapons did more. At dark aeons+ you wouldn't touch it.

I don't know about that. I never see PLDs unless they have Empys/Relics/etc but I still see RDMs *** everywhere.

They may not be king anymore but people still use them a lot.

They compared it to PLD and NIN how both had different approaches to tanking like defense and evasion, and RUN(RNF? lol) will focus on elemental resistance. It also uses runes, they made it sound like expendable items (like cards or tools) but I'm not sure on that one, but they power your abilities toward a particular element, giving both attack and defense properties of that element.
