I know some of this has nothing to do with parties, but as a BLM/RDM I need to put my two cents in. I think BLM/RDM is a wonderful combo, with many pro's. Do you know how often I run through somewhere and find a bunch of dead people "Hey can you raise" " <Job> Sorry I dont got this raise thing your talking about ^^." My sub is a lot more fun for me to level up ^^ (Seriously though I cant stand WHM). I can... solo things. With Bind and Gravity I can solo EPs-DCs just casting Dia, drain, aspir (Was raising Enfeebling ^^). Your solo potential is pretty great to, what BLM/WHM can solo Aquarius? I was in a party with a BLM/SMN one time, dont know if he just sucked, but I out did him like 30-40 dmg per spell, and 120 dmg on the burst. Basically, I think that your sub is totally dependent upon what you feel like leveling, and what you think is best, not what anybody else thinks.

If you did 30-40 dmg per spell more and 120 damage on burst...he had to have the worst gear on the planet. The INT difference would have to be so huge...and he'd have to have no moldavite earring, no staves, no nothing. BLM/SMN has more INT than /RDM, and more MP than /WHM, but no cures. So, theoretically, BLM/SMN should deal the most damage, but be the least effective in terms of additional contributions. For you to outdamage him that badly...he definately had to have god-awful gear.
