New Job Ideas

Would the mage also have an overload feature? Perhaps that could limit the overall damage output by adding a bit of randomness. I would be interested to know what this mainhanded item could be. It seems um... That many of your ideas are already present in World of Warcraft through Shamanic magic and wands.

I could see barrier magic being part of the moogle skillset. Afterall, they can cast many type of spells, and even use household items to pummel creatures (and players). It sounds like an interesting, pottentially silly job. I approve.

with regard to the weaponless mage, there are many instances of this in folklore. it is my sincerest hope that should SE add such a job they look into more acclectic items, such as magic leaves, enscorcelled stones, and other such items as foci for this job.

Don't play WoW, wouldn't know. The word totem was probably a poor choice though.
As for the main handed item, perhaps an orb or crystal of some sort, maybe even magicite, if we want to go lore on this idea.

Another game I did not/do not play. Another game made by Blizzard to boot.

Closet blizzard perhaps?

I am hardly a stranger to blizzard. Warcraft 1, Warcraft 2, Starcraft 1, Warcraft 3, Starcraft 2. Starcraft 1 probably has as many hours logged as FFXI does for me, if not more, much more.

And to obtain this job, one must visit each of the mother crystals to gather shards? That sounds just challneing enough for a new job without excluding level 30s.

Wasn't "Warrior of the Crystal" already a title?

And Dark Taoist is already a job. I'm really not sure what this magic monk would be called.
