Mimes

[Wibbly]

One job I'd love to see added to XI would be MIMES. (You know, besides chemists, geomancers and time mages)


They'd be able to mimic the buffs of enemies and friends alike, and spread them among the party. they'd be able to mimic and repeat weapon skills or abilities used by the party.

I think their two hour (I think True/Ancient Mimicry) would be to fully mimic one person in the party by mimicing everything about them, stats, gear, wyvern or automoton, abilities and magics, skill levels... (All level appropriate) Then activating the two hour of that class for the duration. Dancer's Trance and dance skills. Corsair's Wild Card. Summoner's astral flow and a random avatar spell. Or, if without a party perhaps a random out of all of them. Or even more fitting, a Mime without something to mimic cannot use it.

As for the look, I think the classic still stands as a great example of how they would look:

The rest, is up to the imagination!

Not only a fun idea, but the outfits are cute, and the second it came out I'd buy the expansion and start leveling it up to level whatever just to be awesome. D:

I wonder how a Mime burn would work...

...probably a whole lot of mimicry followed by death.

I'd imagine. xD Imagine two mimes trying to mimic one another. Infinite loop!

It would definitely be a job that goes in a party!

You know, this would actual be kinda fun. You would be able to FCB Manaburn etc using Mimes as long as you had at least 1 war or 1 blm. A complete all-around job that is dependant on the jobs of other members in the party. Solo would suck though. I have read bad idea after bad idea for new jobs, but this is one job I would actually be for. Not to mention it is a job that can add without having to add much data, since it would mimic all of the others.

Win.

Plus Gogo should be an NPC if there are mimes hanging around. No question. Pre-reqs for unlocking would probably have to be high too.

General skill levels in all jobs is a start. I figure having jobs at level 30 would be enough. Most people collect em now anyways.

BUT no.. I don't think having GOGO around would be good. o-o Making his GEAR, however?

Nooo, you NEED Gogo. Anyone else would just feel...fake.

Okay so maybe the guy to train you as a mimic and give you a simulacrum would be GOGO. :0
