Sam/rdm?

[Stek]

is this a decent combo or am i wasting my time?

i am a taru so it would be nice to have some magic skills. i like the idea of being a hybrid melee that can cast damage spells, use slow/debuffs, and have baby heals were needed.

but if your sub job can only be 50% of main job you would miss out on the refresh spell, which seems to be the bread and butter of the class

Why would you want to stand there and cast spells if your main purpose on the battlefield is using your 2handed katana ... no mage is good sub-job for a Samurai because it just defeats the purpose .... The best subjobs for Samurai is Samurai/Warrior or Samurai/Theif

I am going to be a samurai/redmage and also sub monk along with it. I think it can work out pretty well youwuld also get the weapon enchant spells. But in the end you pick what you want to.

i was thinking that since i am a Taru i would have a larger magic pool with a mage type sub.

redmage seems like a decent sub because you could have some offensive spells as well as slow and a few debuffs. also healing during the downtime would be a useful trait.

has anyone tried this combo mid to high end gaming? (30+)

I don't think many people have tried it. Since i haven't gotten my import yet. You try i out and see if you like it if you can mae it that far.
