What kind of mage would you be?

[rubah]

Sorry guys
Summoner - just summon magic

Untrue. Rydia's class is Summoner, yet in her young form, she employs all three.

I think they mean in the scope of this poll

[Purple shoot]

Mmmm...its hard to say but...im between Black mage and summoner, because its cool to control the fire, or the ice, but its cool summon a bahamunt or a lich, you dont think so?

Summoner in the topic can only use the summon command. Sorry but just making it easy for other options.

Since most of the games I've played allow the summoning of both offensive and defensive creatures, I'll go with Summoner.

After that, probably White Mage. I like a strong defensive position, and being able to recover from damage is about as defensive as you can get.

[MageLuingil]

Yes, but while Red Mage can do a little bit of everything, they don't excel in anything. They are generalists. Which is both their strength and their weakness.

I agree with that entirely, though I'd still pick Red Mage primarily. For that reason, though, my second choice would be Black Mage. Fire and Ice, baby. FREEZE-FRY!!!

I don't think theres been a summon that added protect and shell in the series. I may be wrong.

In Final Fantasy VI, Golem casts protect and ZoneSeek casts Shell on the party. Just to set the records straight.

Black Mage, so I can play with the dolls when I get bored.

[BardTard]

Plus I think Carbuncle is super cute.

ME TOO!!! When I played FF8 and got Carbuncle I was just like AWWW I wanna hug it! lol

[Dynast-Kid]

Carbuncle is cute...

But what use does he have when he's frozen in time?...

Time Mages are teh pwnage!

[shiva24]

i would be a black mage because i love the elemental power.

[Alexander]

Summoner.

And since they are never yuse onyl Summon Magic, Summoner/Red Mage.

Preferrably FFI Red Mage + Doublecast + Summon Magic. <3

BTW, Golem does not cast Protect. He just soaks up damage for you, Which is really useful.

Carbuncle with full animation at FFIX will cast Protect on all party members along with the other status effect (Shell, Haste, Vanish or the usual Reflect). Which means that Moonstone (Shell) + Carbuncle = cheaper Mighty Guard.

[boys from the dwarf]

having hordes of monsters that can do nearly anything is better than any other mage because if i gave you a list of all of the summons, there would be very little a summoner couldn't do.

[NINJA_Ryu]

I'd be a Blue Mage and learn all of your abilities...

True, encompasses all magic, Red, White, Red, Time, AND sumoner ^ ^

[Thane]

I'd be a red mage. Because in real life, just like a red mage I'm good at nearly everything and I'm a useful guy but I'm never the best and there is always somebody more useful that me.

But personally I like white mages and mystic knight from FF V(If that counts as a mage). And dude you forgot Time mage why isn't that up in the poll?

[Pike]

I'd be a Red Mage because I can sorta do everything but I'm not really great at anything...

Also, I've had a crush on Red Mage since I started reading 8-Bit Theater.

[Ashley Schovitz]

I was going to pick blue mage, but then I remembered to be a blue mage you have to change your species and be like a Qu, a Ronso, or a Quistis so I'm going to go with Summoner because they're the most powerful and have the best personalities.
