You are now a mage...

[Pike]

...what kind are you?

I would be a Red Mage because I'm a jack of all trades but a master of none :( At least I'd get a snazzy outfit.

[Del Murder]

Blue Mage can do anything any other job can do by stealing their powers. It's the Rogue of mages.

[Fynn]

White mage. Since I'm a man of faith and quite versatile at that, but still a bit of a wuss :love:

[VeloZer0]

Definitely Red or Blue, I couldn't stand going out there without a sword in hand.

[Sylvie]

Red Mage. I like balance, and let's face it, I'd look damn good in RM garb. It's always been one of my favorite (aside from Dark Knights) jobs in the Final Fantasy world.

[chionos]

Sylvie, Pike, we're the Red Mage Crew. I like balance. A little bit of everything.

[Jiro]

I picked Red because, like Pike, I'm a jack. However I wouldn't mind being a Black or Time mage really. FIREBALLS IN MY HANDS or SLOW TIME KNIFE YOU IN THE BACK.

[Sylvie]

Can we start a gang now?

[chionos]

Can we start a gang now?

Yes, but you can't be the leader. I don't want to die or end up in a Turkish prison. Pike can be the leader and Jiro can be our foreign liaison and PR guy. You can be the pimp and I'll be the enforcer.

[Sylvie]

I don't want to the be the pimp. I want to be the libertine.

[chionos]

You can be both. I don't think pimps are usually too stuck on morals or any other values for that matter. Do whatever you want, just bring in the monies. We's gots to buy white AND black spells, so we need lots of it. Bring home the money and you can marquisdesadomasticate anything you want.

[Sylvie]

Excellent. I'll hustle boys, girls, and shemales so we can attain wizardly dread. Ya know dawg, I got a rapier, but that don't mean I raped her.

[Slothy]

There's only one way I could go really, being a man who appreciates a good face obscuring hat.

All the better to spy on you all from the bushes.

[Rantz]

I'm tempted to be a Time Mage, but... Blue Mage represent!

Let's have a gang war.

[Mirage]

Time mage for sure

With blue mage as a close second

Can I multiclass like in FF5 or 11 or something?

[Jessweeee♪]

I want to be a Time Mage but I think at heart I'm more likely to be a Black Mage xD

[Araciel]

Time mage fo sho.

/slow

[Jiro]

Pike can be the leader, that's fine, but only until Captain Maxx Power comes back.

[chionos]

I want to be a Time Mage but I think at heart I'm more likely to be a Black Mage xD

I don't see it.

[Gamblet]

Pff all you Red Mages casting low level spells... I'll Meteor you to death.:cool:

[Jessweeee♪]

I want to be a Time Mage but I think at heart I'm more likely to be a Black Mage xD

I don't see it.

No, on further thought, I would be a Red Mage. Wanting to learn every kind of magic I can so I don't miss out on anything that could come in handy, but lacking the diligence to properly master any one skill.

I think that right there is why so many of us are Red Mages. :jess:

[Depression Moon]

I guess none of you noticed the other option so I'll take that one and get the one everyone forgot about. A sage is the best choice considering they're a master of them all.

[VeloZer0]

Pff all you Red Mages casting low level spells... I'll Meteor you to death.:cool:
I'll be waiting for you at the end of a dungeon when you have exhausted all of your spells. Have fun eating sword to the face.

[Gamblet]

What sword are we talking about?

[VeloZer0]

The sharp pointy steel ones Red Mages can wield but Black Mages can't.

[Pike]

Time Mage is my second choice, due to my irrational love of horology.

[chionos]

Time Mage is my second choice, due to my irrational love of horology.

You like studying whores? Me too!

[Jiro]

What sword are we talking about?

Mage Masher.

[Gamblet]

What sword are we talking about?

Mage Masher.

It is a dagger. And by the way Time Mage can teleport. I'll teleport out of the dungeon and let you die of starvation. I'm so evil.

[Pike]

Time Mage is my second choice, due to my irrational love of horology.

You like studying whores? Me too!

Oh you.

[Freya]

Once you go black you.... yah.

[Mirage]

Red mage is for adventurers with ADD.

Time Mage just opens up for so ridiculously many applications.

Deadline approaching rapidly, and your work not nearly done? Slow down the world, speed yourself up! Little boy about to get run over by a truck? Stop the truck, walk over and save the kid. Sexy woman in a skirt bending over but not enough for you to see all the goods from your current position? You know what to do.

[Bolivar]

Black Mage. The best defense is a good offense!

[Sylvie]

I would not interfere with the boy getting hit by the truck. See, this is why you Time Mages are going to get totally fucked by karma. It's simply too easy to "manipulate time".

[Mirage]

Nah, why?

[Del Murder]

Time mage would be my second choice, but they don't have enough offensive spells. Meteor as a time spell is kind of silly.

Why no BLU love? We have offensive (damage of all types, even 100% guaranteed damage in 1000 Needles), defensive (Mighty Guard), curative (White Wind), and other surprises in our bag of tricks (let's see how good your spells hold up after you eat a few Magic Hammers). Plus we're good with swords (better than Red Mage).

[Bolivar]

^ Too much effort required.

[Del Murder]

It pays off in the end, when it takes little effort to KILL YOU.

[Iceglow]

I'd probably rock as a blu mage, after all my home country is just full of things what want you dead.

[Mirage]

Blu is in many games the most versatile and powerful mage by far, but time magic just opens up for so many unique things. Blue magic can heal and damage, and do a few buffs and a few debuffs, but few of them are unique to blue mage. Time mages, on the other hand, can stop motherfreaking time, and teleport/warp.

I agree that it's silly to have meteor as a time magic spell though. Something that would be much more fitting would be demi/gravity/maelstrom and such. I'm not sure if these actually count as time magic in games where time mages are present though. They might do.

Anyway, i'm sure I could get by with not too many offensive spells, when I can cast stop+slow on them, and haste+quick on myself and beat people senseless with my staff while they can't defend themselves.

[VeloZer0]

I don't know about you guys, but the best Blue Magic I can learn around here is probably Skunk Spray.

[Hollycat]

red mage, green mage, black mage, white mage, blue mage, time mage.
Red mage, they are the only one that gets a sword, and as the most athletic, they could be doing cartwheels and stuff while attacking.

also, vieras can be redmages.

[VeloZer0]

Blue mages use swords as well.

[Hollycat]

but they have to learn there skills by being hit by them, and if you are traveling alone then you will never learn level 5 death.

[Mirage]

So what?

[chionos]

but they have to learn there skills by being hit by them, and if you are traveling alone then you will never learn level 5 death.

Final Fantasy IX. Auto-Life. Blue Mage spell.

[Del Murder]

Auto-Life + Frog Drop = Unstoppable.

[Bolivar]

It pays off in the end, when it takes little effort to KILL YOU.

by the time you get to that end, it only took me little effort to kill YOU

+ your party, your neighborhood acquaintances, and maybe a few planets.

[Del Murder]

You act like red mages start at level 99 with all their spells.

[Hollycat]

but they have to learn there skills by being hit by them, and if you are traveling alone then you will never learn level 5 death.

Final Fantasy IX. Auto-Life. Blue Mage spell.

You still have to be hit by it to learn it, and that isn't happening if you are alone.

Edit: unless you are a qu, in which case never mind.

[Jiro]

but they have to learn there skills by being hit by them, and if you are traveling alone then you will never learn level 5 death.

If it is ineffective it still counts, iirc. So yeah, Blue Mages just need to keep away from multiples of 5.

[VeloZer0]

I forget, how do I check my level again?

[Jiro]

Press the triangle button. Or the circle button. Try all of the buttons.

[Mirage]

Depends on the game. Lv5 Death is a really situational spell anyway. I'm sure most blue mages could do without it.

[Gamblet]

Press the triangle button. Or the circle button. Try all of the buttons.

I pressed the shoulder buttons + Start, Select. I did not save, god dammit! :mad2:

Angel Rings baby, auto re-raise ;)
