I simply went through my CoP experiences as far as I've completed them to illusterate my point that Red Mages are far far from useless in the missions. Sorry if you feel I overlooked your exact wording.
After the first promys, Red-Mages are useful and even needed. I've had friends go through Dem, Mea and Holla as Red Mages and do well in those fights even without the abilities and spells we get later on.
2-3 is a pain and sucks to do period, whatever job you are. Our alliance had 3 deaths from its tp move. Two were warrior and one was a ninja. Not a red-mage death did we have.^^
Just curious though, why is being needed to kite at times a bad thing or a mark against you being a red mage? There are many fights where we' have to deal with a link through either sleeping or kiting it. We have some excellent tools for kiting and sometimes its needed.
Soloing to 20
