This, a thousands times. RDM will really become less repetitive and mind dumbing with ascension and some lovely Refresh-ga or Haste-ga.But then, RDM/SCH will be able to do it sooner with Accession from sub. At least, next time I get stuck in the BLM PT, I won't want to kill myself anymore.
BRD/COR doing Ballad+Evoker's looks nice , and I'm wondering if there could be any actual use for a DD subbing BLU for self skillchains + stats boost
Rdm/Sch will only get 2 charges even at 99/49 and when aoeing spells the recast time is doubled. So with 2 charges Rdm/Sch will have to pick and choose what they Aoe(Haste, Refresh, stoneskin, gravga), whereas Sch/Rdm SHOULD get 5 charges at 99/49 so they will have more freedom on what they can AoE.
There a lot of unknown things that may happen I honestly hope things like
War & THF getting T2 Double Attack, Trick attack,
Hopefully Not doing things like:
Making haste/Refresh non-ga, though I also hope they’ll add Haste/Refresh II and increase there duration, to give rdms more time focus on Enf’ing
Giving a higher Double attack may even take the use of weapons like ridills out of the equation due to limiting there ability to x3 attack by increasing the frequency of x2 attacks.
Giving Tier 2Haste could give Cor New chance of taking brds place in pts: fighter's/Chaos rolls & March/Min,
Though there really is endless things SE can do to jobs to change the way you play them at higher levels as well the selection of sub jobs,
/whm for scholar, /sch for other mages will be beastly.
I wasn't saying nin and mnk would lose ground to Sam, but that they would become much better while sam potentially gains a 5hit and not a lot else. It is probably safe to merge this with the speculation thread now
Can we talk about Corsair now?
It still allows RDM a good amount of flexibility. In some roles, a RDM will be using the 2 charges for aoe enfeebles, sleeps, etc., and sometimes for aoe stoneskin and curaga III-IVs, sometimes just for penury to conserve MP, sometimes for aoe haste/refresh. And in any given role, 2 charges is enough. Refresh lasts 2.5 min, and you'll have your charge back by then. So you can refreshga and hastega every time, if that's all you use your charges for. And in some situations, that's all you'll need them for, anyway. If, instead, you're tank party RDM on an HNM fight, you might be using those charges for something else. If you're melee party RDM in einherjar, you might make good use of aoe stoneskin and haste, and forget refresh.
So for whatever role you're filling at the moment, whether it be merit, tank PT RDM, melee PT RDM, mage PT RDM, low man RDM, solo RDM, etc. 2 charges will be enough. And if you switch parties, or roles, just use those same two charges for something else, instead.
SCH might get more charges, but given the versatility RDM already has, this will just make it even better.
I'd rather they do something to make my ridill more useful and allows me to have an edge for having one. Last thing anyone would want is to diminish it's value. If anything, it needs to be coveted again.

i would think that by using the "Part" terminology, rather than "Stage" or a simple numbered list, that the last one listed is implied as the last one i.e. Part III in DEC
Ya my ridill definitely collects dust hardcore. If they add BLU to its job list i will be happy...
A- with acc bonus from traits/homam + Ridill seems like it could improve BLU's melee DD status a ton
I'm picturing BLU/DRG or BLU/NIN or even BLU/WAR with bergressor... (edit forgot to mention BLU/RDM) + Ridill
Anyhow, sorry for bringing up blu.
SMNs: Come on SE add something to smn so we don't always have to play like we're only our SJ
level cap increase announced
SMNs: YES HASTE REFRESH CONVERT OMFG AWESOME
also possiblity that there could be tier T3 March Song @ lv91(29>60>91),then add around 240extra Skill+-(Wind+Sing),
(7%>10%>14%not counting skills) (7>15>22with skills) - Taking base maths from Wiki(560-566, 122/1024 (11.91%)) then add'd extra skill, Please forgive me if my maths is wrong >.<;
Edit: Mt3 22% + Mt2 15% + gear 25%+ haste 15% = 77%
Mt3 22% + Mt2 15% + gear 25% + HasteII 20% = 82%,
*Pure speculation =P*
Edit2:
Cor fighter's roll:
24% + 10% + 5%merit = 39%, Add extra tier of 5%-10% possible 44%-49% +5Brut = 49%-54% DA
That's some good points, but what I was trying to get at is, Rdm will have to be stuck in 1 role, to make full use of the 2 charges it will get by subbing Sch, which for most of the time is sufficent.
But Sch will be able to, for a blm pt, refreshga, weatherga, switch to dark, Klimaformga, gravga, then start throwing out nukes as well. As a Healer/buffer for a DD or tank pt, stoneskinga, hastega, weatherga, enspellga (if no whm in the pt as well) and phalanxga.
And IF sch gets a 5th charge, the wait time will only be 45 secs to recharge strats, while /Sch will be 2 mins. Plus Sch can mix and match buffs and enfeebles a bit more freely than Rdm/Sch will be able to.
Then again, this is all as of right now, we don't know how potent refresh or haste will be when subbed, or even if Schs will be able to aoe them yet.
They had stated under that picture that all release content and dates were tentative and subject to change without notice. I'm still skeptical of a June release w/ level increase.
Ascension + Composure = Since your casting it on 'yourself' you get more duration for everyone? Since it doesn't work on subject spells, but works on main job spells, would be interesting...
