better class m/w (w/m) or m/r (r/m)

what are the pros / cons comparing these two combos

I have been playing r/m but I see a lot of w/m and wondered.

The main difference is that w/m is a magical dps class, where as r/m is physical. Both however are mainly getting dps from their "white hits" (normal attacks) Apart from that, I'd say r/m has more burst damage and w/m has for more sustained damage, however both are good classes for burst and sustained regardless.

R/M is better. There certainly isn't any reason to swap to w/m if you're already playing r/m.

Quoted from "Borella"

R/M is better.

i disagree, i would say it depends on the party/guild you run with, if you have a m/d or buff alts w/m > r/m. Atleast thats what its like in our runs, k/m can also do very nicely if m/d is in party. But yea, no point to go w/m if you are playing r/m already.

I suppose that's true. I'm basing it off of what I see on Reni. Our W/M's are terrible. Absolutely awful.
