Also the source of my fastest party wipe ever. Casting Curaja on a party that is now technically undead... BAD IDEA.

I may need to try out FFV then, sounds interesting. Though the more I think about it, the idea of a more mobile mage does interest me. Kinda why I dislike Blackmage, it revolves primarily around sitting still and casting. Maybe Redmage will remedy that to a point but I don't wanna shift topic.
This is a cool idea. I think the create doll and deterioration/burst damage mechanics would be a good way to set the job apart from the others and stay true to the idea of voodoo magic. It kind of reminds me of Relm's Paint ability from FF6 (In terms of creating copies of the enemy). I do agree though that SE will likely stick to the established pedigree of jobs for the foreseeable future.
Actually, that sounds kinda cool. I can see it maybe being a class where the doll you create becomes a pet slot like ACN or MCH; the pet bar would have either the moves the doll could inflict on itself, or the dots and debuffs you can place on it. The doll's health could go down as you deal the damage, and maybe you could do a final burst attack once it dies. Then you'd move in to resummon/reattune the new doll, and start over.
Nice idea, and a great change from the recycled ideas of red mage this, blue mage that XD
Original ideas are better.
As we all know if they do implement red mage and/or blue mage the first posts we will see is complaining that they didn't implement themas they were in FFXI and/or how they personally envisioned they should be implemented ^_^
Sounds like how they would implement the Puppetmaster
There's absolutely no way this job could get super racist.
I also think that the Voodoo based job would be a good addition to the game. Sounds like a lot of fun!
Google "racism and voodoo." Try not to get too defensive. Be enlightened.
