What place, if any, ......

I'm not going to go deep into it unless you want me too, don't sub blm on smn, trust me. Whm is the best way to go, all ways around. I understand most of your complaints is you don't want to heal..well I see it as playing as ninja instead of pld because you don't want to tank.

Mishaela,rdm's only achille's heel is lack of firepower, their -only- weakness. Only retards get killed while converting, and it's easy as hell to convert mid battle. If you know a mob can break through your stoneskin or whatever, the non stupid rdm will sleep it, convert,then go back to fighting. Convert is nice, but it in no way makes rdm the solo house it is. It's a combination of enhancing spells, enfeebling spells (to help close the power gap between mob and player), healing spells, REAL weapons (no wand/staff) and part meleeness (higher hp and def then pure mage) that make them able to solo. I'm sure people are pissed when in ballista they learn they have to kill something that can sleep them at will, has phalanx,protect 4,stoneskin,blink, and barsilence up, and that can cure 4 itself,keep mp up and convert, and that they have to kill that while being blinded,slowed,paralyzed, bioed, poisoned and rasped(or whatever). That's why rdm can solo.

Now given, it's hard to run away from a rdm because of gravity,sleeps, and bind, but overall you have time to call for help or escape... rdm won't kill you fast. This is their weakness, they can't deal the damage. Of course, with a /nin sub and kraken club + excaliber..... this can be fixed.

The hard part is getting people to fight you in ballista, they just ignore you. You can't really grab their attention, because your damage is crap.. .nothing to worry about alone lol.
 
well since someone side tracked the thread away from SMN/BLM to a red mage discussion . . . I'm gonna side track it again :twisted:

Wtf is with the blm/smn I've been seeing a lot of lately? Not even like, post 50, so they can't say its for auto-refresh cause that's bs.

So give it up peeps, have you noticed this trend also?

I partied with TWO BLM/SMN last night, and let me tell you it was annoying.

DV i love ya to death but i have to dissagree with u on that. i know a blm that subbed smn all the way to 60. and he owned. his name is Midir and he's a good friend of mine. only reason he switched to whm sub was when he finally got erase. i know that cause i was with him when we did the BCNM 40 to get it.

and sanjo is right on the money. watching a rdm solo is like a river carving a canyon. it isnt fast but in the end the river wins out.
 
I just had some not-so-good experiences with those two particular BLMs and they seemed to hinder us more than help us.

I'm reading (edited cause I can't type XD) that thread now Rones, thank you.
