    If all of a sudden Red Mage is a Lancer in game (Like Freya in FF9) Many people might get upset because Red Mage is supposed to use swords.
    Wait, what? Freya was a red mage? I do not recall her casting any white or black magic.

    Yes I do have a My Little Pony sig because I'm not a complete loser who lives in his own little world, proclaiming something is stupid because I say so.

    Freya was not Intentionally a Red Mage no, She wasn't a Dragoon Either. She did wear the Red Mage Get up, but she used skills that were previously considered "Blue Magic" in some past games and used a spear.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Reis' Wind, Luna, and White Draw were all similar to Blue Magic skills from past games

    Making examples using single player Final Fantasy installments is pretty bad. Their job, weapon, equipment, what they eat, what spells they cast is unique to the character in that storyline. Because there are several instances of some character using a weapon, but looked like a job, yet casted this spell. That doesn't mean FFXIV should include all of these instances. They will develop the jobs unique to FFXIV while keeping it Final Fantasy. Like it or not.

    Freya is a Dragon knight aka Dragoon as stated in the game, there are red mage npcs wandering around lindblum or alexandria(i think) in IX they look nothing like her though i can understand the mistake. They just chose to make her get up pink to make her look more feminine, her trance form returns to the traditional dragoon colours. Not that im against the redmage lancer combo.... =p
