    Example cure is made up of three elements which are under the astral, I forgot which 3 are the astral elements but the lore can fit <.<
    What about the Umbral?

    No... CNJ deals with all the Elements. THM has nothing that even hints at the elements, just astral/umbral spells. If THM turns into WHM, what moves from CNJ to THM? Cure I-III, Raise I and II, Rebirth, Pro+Shell, SS, and the Curagas.

    CNJ WHM? Move Blizzard, Fire, Stone, Aero, Thunder, Water I-II + Choke, Burn, etc. I-II + AM, Profundity I-II, Purge I-II, Resonance, as well as whatever I can't think of at the top of my head... That's over 30 spells/abilities.

    You would have to do the same thing for THM so your argument is invalid lol. You would have to move all the THM nuking skills to CON.

    THM lore fits BLM well and CON's lore fits WHM if you can't see then I'm sorry

    How many does THM have? 15? And CNJ lore does not fit curing at all. I've only played that and not once have they expressed a notion or want of curing.

    I disagree with you. You are forgetting that there are two sides to the THM faith. Light and dark. Yin and Yang. Death and life. If that isn't the archetype for a priest/whm I don't know what is.

    I've said it before, I'll say it again - I cannot see White Mage evolving from a guild that worships sin, considers death profit, and runs a mausoleum. It just... I can't.

    Also, they've known about the job system for a long time, they wouldn't have given CON three raises and two AoE cures if they weren't trying to single it out as the WHM ahead of time.

    And THM very much deals in the elements.

    Banish and Scourge each contain 33.3% of three elements. It's called polarity.

    The two AoE cures are simple to explain: "CNJ has Cure spells, we're not giving THM Curaga."

    Yes, but your storyline doesn't involve elements actively. Ours does. The whole time.

    Q1: I think CON will be White and THM will be black. They both have a mismash from both classes, but CON's greater emphasis on healing makes me think it will be more likely to be black mage. While some equate black mages with elemental damage, I think more of simply destructive magic when I think of black mages, which makes it more of a fit to THM with all of its dots and leeching spells.

    Q2: Ifrit is a primal, the Twelve are a different cast entirely. Linky.

    Also, who says the jobs will be tied directly to the guilds? the whm job could just be more priestly version of thms who would rather spend their time more towards helping others. This is the beautiful thing about adding new lore.
