Some new spells and abilities ideas that would make the job more applicable in parties again, especially end game content. Please post your own suggestions and reply with opinions or alternate versions of one another.
My suggestions:
Reflect: (Spell - Recast: 2 mins, duration: Depends on MND stat.)
When damaged by a spell, or hit with a negative effect, you have a chance of dealing some of that damage back, or a smaller version of the enfeebling effect back at the caster. A small animation that resembles old school Reflect spells and effects displays when it activates.
Dual Cast: (Ability - Recast: 5 minutes, shares recast with Quadra Cast.)
You cast your next spell twice. In return, the spell takes a little longer (1.5x as long) to cast and costs a little more MP (1.5x as much). *You may select two targets for the spell before casting. *-Though if programming wouldn't allow it, you just cast the spell twice on the original target.
Animation: You cast the spell like normal, but when you finish casting, the animation of its effects happen twice, back-to-back, on the selected target/s.
Quadra Cast: (Ability - Recast: 15 minutes, shares recast with Dual Cast.)
You cast your next spell four times. In return, the spell takes much longer (3x as long) to cast and costs a lot more MP (3x as much). *You may select four targets for the spell before casting. *-Though if programming wouldn't allow it, you just cast the spell four times on the original target.
Animation: You cast the spell like normal, but when you finish casting, the animation of its effects happen over and over, for a total of four times.
Quadra Cut: (Ability - Recast: 5 minutes, Duration: 1 minute)
You gain a "Quadruple Attack" bonus during duration.
