THe Magus in FF is usually a upgrade of the Black Mage (BLack Magus normally called). I don't know if that can be possible, sound redundant.
PD: Level 1: Meteo. Holy shit!!! -

Feels like the Wizard job from Bravely second, all in all It might actually work although some skills in this form are actually a bit too powerful, but would be a nice addition nonetheless imho

It's actually closer to a very underrated Squaresoft game, Threads of Fate. I like the references, a lot, but I do agree it could be a bit overpowered.

Magus also appears in Dimensions and in the JP version of Bravely Default, Arcanist is called Magus.Quote:

This post just gave me an idea.
If Black Mage upgrades to magus, make it so that it gives you a slight buff to all stats and one, yes one, move that would bring the job to unrivaled heights. Something really OP that can't be used in PvP and has a long cool-down its so awesome.
For this to work it would have to be implemented during the later bits of the games life when the level cap is close to the max though.
Ideas like this are fun to imagine. -

Definitely an interesting idea. Sure, some of those skills could use a passing nerf and the support end seems a bit too heavy, but the spell alteration factor is definitely a cool concept. I definitely approve!
Would say too though that I'm not too sure about the name of "Magus" for the sake of translation purposes. Thinking Bravely Second got it right with "Wizard", but maybe "Sage" or something that wouldn't wind up as the same name found in Black Mage or White Mage in other languages. -

lol, Blackcanary, no one wants to post an idea they've spent some time on at the bottom of the sixth page of someone elses thread.
You'd be better off being less demanding, ask people to link and summarize ideas in there if you're that keen to have a single thread for every job idea.
