FFXI comes back

Sort of but we dont kno for sure but he did use enfire on his sword in that small clip so im hoping an keepin fingers crossed.  With how FF14 is set up, I don't see how Red Mage would fit to buy FFXIV Gil.
It would be a easy solo class to get from 1-50.

But what of endgame? Surely, people would want a Paladin or Warrior over a Red mage. People would groan at the sight of a Red Mage being primary healer instead of a Scholar or White Mage since their heals couldn't compare. Really the only thing going for them in endgame is just to act as dps.If they are going to add a Red Mage FFXIV Gil... they'll probably do the same thing they did to Bard.Archer, gave it 4 songs.. slapped the name on it and there you go.

 If you read the interview, he hinted that red mage is coming next.  THF was in, but they sold it and renamed it Rogue. Plays a ton like it until you unlock NIN at level 30. I do agree that RDM and BLU should be in the game. I don't think we'll ever see red mage in the game... at least not the way it was played and used in FFXI. I loved them back in FFXI. But who knows, maybe they will finally, one day, release dual-purpose class just like a Red Mage was, (Dps/Healer, acting more like a "support" class than a pure healer or pure dps class, just like I was expecting the DRK to be tank/dps and not just tank  .. Who knows, it might change for the best someday !
