Suport and Enfeble Red

[Lucky and Elizabeth]

My friend told me he was a Red Mage in a Party with a BLM and a WHM, and they were both casting Bio and Dia instead of Healing and Attacking, and not letting the RDM do the enfelbing.

Re: Suport and Enfeble Red

Need more details about the lvl and party setup and stuff, but usually with a WHM you can let them spam Dia and just overwrite it with Bio if you need your tank to take less damage.

With a BLM I usually just tell them to stop using Bio and just spam drain/aspir instead if they want to lvl dark magic skill unless I have Dia II on the mob, in those cases they can spam Bio all they want and it shouldn't overwrite your Dia II.

However Elemental debuffs (Choke Frost etc,) become BLM territory after lvl 60ish because of our really low elemental skill (if /BLM).

Also at lower levels (up to 50ish?) BLM and WHM can stick debuffs as good or better than a RDM, so they can easily stick Para, Slow and others if the RDM is too busy meleeing to debuff the mob (which happens a lot at lower levels ).

Re: Suport and Enfeble Red

I'm not showing that you ever posted.

OP: So all they were doing was casting bio and dia? Your statement of "instead of healing and attacking" makes it sound as though all they were doing was debuffing. That is out of the ordinary and not very smart. However, just casting one then going on about your job is something alltogether different. (Except constantly overwriting eachother's enfeeb with another.)
