What Weapon Should A Blue Mage Use?

What if their weapon is a 'Monster Crystal?' Since they'll mostly be using magic (that can be physical or magical damage), I don't think they'll be using weapons (swords, canes, etc) at all. Dunno what their auto-attacks could be (nor what their role could be. If DPS, will they be Melee, Caster or Ranged?).

i hope BLU gets whips so that there's no chance for BST in XIV.

forks are okay too as a 2nd choice.

Mace would be nice, give monk a blunt wielding friend. Maybe mace/shield combo.

Since they're presumably going to originate in the near east, I'd like if they stuck to tradition and gave them some kind of enchanted scimitar.

I'm hoping they'll roll with the Arabic design aesthetic they had in both FFTA and XI.

I really hope (if tank) it's a hammer or mace type weapon. Would nice to see some variety other than different types of swords.

Morning star or even a huge spike ball on a chain to swing around

I don't know that looks too barbaric for a Blue Mage.

ffviii, the blue mage had a whip

Smart money atm is that it'll be a gunblade tank.

Whip Blade like Seven from Type -0
