I have +5x Int based on a 65 Int.

I just wonder i nuke so little.. should I add + MAB gear or + Elemental Skill gear ? i dont think i can get more +Int gear... Maybe I can get the RSE feet that has +3 Int , sacrificing +5Mnd...

So what you guys suggest?

btw i just bought a Wizard's Earring. that gives me +5 Elemental Skills with BLM sub,.. i hope its worth it.


o yeah, i wonder.. i nuke so little coz i have low int or coz my nuke is partialy resisted?
haha Dchaos still dont take it that Rdm is sux in nuking that I've been saying long time lol

unless ur a tarutaru rdm, otherwise dont bother nuking on IT
I do see tarutaru rdm nuking decent dmg with full +elemental skill and int gears, but non-taru races have to sacrifice the equip slots for mp gears instead of int/mnd gears for taru and tarus still have highest base int.

full +elemental skill gears I know..
combat caster bracelet +7
elemental torque +7
elemental earring +3
wizard earring +5
af2 pants +10
af1 hat +10

total = 42

rdm is C+ on elemental skill that is 230 at 75
230 + 42 = 272 (maybe 12 skills more if put merit on it)

It is just about a naked Blm base elemental skills at 75
so what do u expect rdm nuke can do?

like what Yk said relax~~

I disagree with that. Why would you waste perfectly good slots on +MP gear instead of boosting other stats? The only time a RDM is going to have full MP is after a full rest or right after converting. I'd much rather macro in my +MP gear after one of those two conditions instead of sacrificing my abilities all the time by wasting slots with +MP gear.

doubt if mp would last until next convert coming up without mp gears
and to get full benfit of convert, hp/mp ratio should be 1:1, thats around 900hp/900mp for hum

i only nuke when i am in a good pt where i am not main healer

just want to speed up the killing..

also, nuking Kirin with Aero III for 20 dmg really hurt my feelings ...

in dynmais too.. i nuke the dmons in xbar for like 20 dmg and people all laugh at me ; ;

i think i will not insiste on nuking as rdm but if i can improve why not

btw my elemental magic is 245 with the wizard's earring

well maybe you should try to count the dmg other can do with your refresh or dmg you prevent with para, silence, slow, etc... it's not always a direct hit that's count... it's like asking can a BRD improve DD so we can killing faster ^^;
