• • As for armor: naturally, the advice nowadays is start farming the Malignance Attire Set, gain access to Nyame Armor Set, as well as upgrade your Empyrean Armor to reforged +2/3. However, there has been a relatively new starter DT set introduced via RSE+1. Short for Reforged Racial Armor +1 through the Strange Happenings Event.
    • Please also take note on the higher end of the spectrum for Adamantite Armor & Ashera Harness.

• Insurgency is an interesting Weapon Skill. Depending on your TP threshold , Insurgency can be used two ways:

1. At low TP threshold (1,000 ~ 1,749 TP), it benefits more from a multi-hit approach.
2. At mid to high TP threshold (1,750+ TP), it benefits more from a front loaded Weapon Skill Damage (WSD) approach.

• For beginners, just focus on landing it accurately. And as your WSD and Multi-hit options improve, craft sets for both scenarios.

Insurgency A   Low TP Focus Utu Grip Seething Bomblet Hjarrandi Helm Agoge Lorica +2 Sulev. Gauntlets +2 Agoge Cuisses +2 Pumm. Calligae +2 War. Beads +1 HP+75, STR/DEX+12, DA+6% Cessance Earring Brutal Earring Niqmaddu Ring Regal Ring Fotia Belt Cichol's Mantle STR+20, Acc/Att+20, STR+10, DA+10, DT-5% Insurgency B   High TP Focus Utu Grip Knobkierrie Agoge Mask +2 Pumm. Lorica +2 Odyssean Gauntlets VIT, Acc/Attack, WSD Odyssean Cuisses VIT, Acc/Attack, WSD Sulev. Leggings +2 War. Beads +1 HP+75, STR/DEX+12, DA+6% Thrud Earring Moonshade Earring TP Bonus+250 Grunfeld Rope Cichol's Mantle VIT+20, Acc+20 Att+20, WSD+10%, PDT-10%

The sets for Insurgency herein can effectively be copy/pasted to Spiral Hell--which utilizes higher Strength and Intelligence modifiers.

High TP threshold Insurgency sets are nearly identical to Spiral Hell, and to save time and space this subsection will be used for both.

Tanking Support Jobs

---

Rune Fencer

Rune Fencer Pre-Master levels is a rather Lackluster support job. it really only bought enhanced elemental resilience, and increased parry rates as its features. With Master levels, it has gotten slightly more powerful. With Future master levels (MLv:45), this will be a VERY potent tanking Support Job for Red Mage. Abilities: Runes, Vallation, Swordplay, Swipe, Lunge, Pflug, Valiance (MLv: 5) Traits: Tenacity, Auto Regen, Inquartara, Tactical Parry, Accuracy Bonus(MLv:10) Divine Magic: Flash Future Master Levels: Things to keep in mind as master levels progress. MLv:45:Foil - Will allow RDM To functionally "Aoe Tank" using Diaga, and repeatedly casting foil using a SIRD + Enmity Set.

Paladin

Paladin is a fairly potent Tanking support job option for Red Mage. Red Mage makes a Disturbingly adequate Main tank when subbing Paladin with the proper gear selection- Even more so when paired with proper support buffs to shore up their Defense Score. Abilities: Holy Circle, Shield Bash, Sentinel, Cover Traits: Undead Killer, Defense Bonus, Resist Sleep, Auto Refresh Divine Magic: Flash Future Master Levels: Master Levels will do little to improve Paladin as a support job. SE Was very adamant that Stances, like Majesty will not be available as a sub'
