I'm at lvl60 rdm (Yay! I has a hat!) but I dunno what food to use. I've been using marron glace, but there has to be something better, it's mostly +mp, and I really don't convert or heal a ton . . . I dunno. Suggestions, please?

Well depends on what type of rdm you are. If you just healing then mp food is ok. Yet if you are enfebling might want to go with some food with stats. The ones I use are:

Mushroom Stew(one of my favorite for smn as well)
+40 mp
-1 str
+4 mnd
+ 4 mp/h
-4 enm
You can also go with Mushroom Risotto which is +3 instead of +4 and can be bought in windy waters from npc.

Brain Stew
+5 int
+5 mnd
+5 dex
+3 hp/h
+3 mp/h

Melon Pie +1
+30 mp
+5 int
+2 mp/h
You can also go with Pumpkin Pie has more mp but less int

Snoll Gelato is a alternative for Marron Glace pretty much a 30 min version of it.

eh, he's/she's a new player so you'll have to make sure that person doesn't take this seriously.

It's a drop from gods which isn't something you'd have access to at your level, what hellstorm said was sound advice.

You can also get roast mushroom in kazham in npc for like 293 gil each for mph+1 and +3mnd.

Take a left when you see the chocobo station near the zone and head until you see the first hut on your right.
 
Coffee/Cherry Muffin +1 is where it's at for me right now. Mostly the +Mnd one. Gives me a lot more mp for convert too.

This is good food to used it a lot back in the 60's if having trouble sticking slow or para this will cure it.

And if that's an offer to keep me in ambrosia, I'll be happy to use nothing else. ;)

But, I tried Brain Stew in my party last night, and I think it helped. I need to go over my gear some (as thrilled as I am with my AF, I know there are better things I can be wearing), and try again. Paralyze especially was either not sticking or wearing very quickly, so if that still happens I'll try the goblin mushpot.
 
are you using a club when casting enfeebles? using mnd+ for white enfeebles such as paralyze slow help and conversely for int+ black enfeebles such as blind, bind, sleep,etc. help a lot as well
 
I've used Orange Kuchen at that level it's 3hr food that simply gives me +9% mp which came in handy when I was main healing alot.

I'm not currently using a club, no. I have all the elemental staves (just the nq ones, nothing too fancy) since I was told they are Important. Right now I have the water staff macroed in for Paralyze (+4 mnd) because I wasn't seeing any kind of difference to using the ice staff for it. I still have the earth staff macroed for slow, but I might change that to the water staff to. Or just leave it. I'm really not sure.

I do seem to see a difference with the dark staff and Dispel, but I could just be imagining everything.
 
my bad I was going by your post that you were only a 35 rdm, if you're 51+ that's a big difference ok

Staves are very important like your buddy told you, they attribute for magic accuracy and magic attack bonus of each affliated spell.

ie Ice staff

You would macro this in for paralyze for extra accuracy and for blizzard spells

You would NOT use this for fire spells as this stave would weaken it...

They don't affect potency just accuracy and boost the damage of ice nukes

If you wish, you don't have to do this but for good measure, find a good hq club and carry it around for potency if you have enough accuracy already to land the enfeeble on the mob consistently it's very important to be able to land the enfeeble at least before worry about increasing the effects.

If you can land consistently then use a club for the debuff whether mnd based or int based. Just don't nuke with them use staves for that.
 
I use HQ Marion Glace (Bjdgioaufhasjdaiohfua(sp?)Glace) at 65 atm ^^

Okay, so I'll put a club on my shopping list . . .

Accuracy is related to skill level, yes?
 
I'm glad somebody posted the sweet rice cakes.. I've used those forever for just general partying as rdm, blm, and whm.

Just hit 61 rdm last night, so congrats on your pimpyness too!
