The Future of THM

[Akuun]

Seems a lot either missed the post, or forgot about it. In 1.20 (the patch prior to jobs) the dev team will be moving some abilities around to classes they feel fit better, so we will likely see all the elemental spells moved to thaum, and the astral/umbral stuff moved to whm.
As for the blm doesn't have to have elemental spells like 11, this is silly, it's not 11, it's a FF tradition, the BLM has always had elemental nukes, always.

I don't understand why everyone is refering THM to BLM or WHM and not RDM. All of THM's abilities and spells are identical to the classic Red Mage from the FF series. I don't see why they wouldn't change THM to RDM, CON to BLM and create a new WHM class. It would make alot more sense.

Ummm, they refere to them that way, because that is what the devs said the jobs for them will be. THM-BLM & CON-WHM. Red mage is not an initial class being introduced. BLM & WHM were announced some time ago as the 2 mage classes. Thus RDM was not an option of discussion

Reading the post of action changes in 1.20, I was overwhelmed with joy to see Convert will be implemented, and that aoe Sleep will be exclusive to black mage. That being said, where are my enfeebles at? D:

SE, please do not take away aoe Paralyze, Slow, Blind, Silence and Absorb Defense!

Totally disagree. why does the potentially heaviest DD ( certainly the heavy magic DD ) need enfeebling magic for. Thats out of balance. Yoshi was very clear to mention he wants to add more mage classes soon, and first on the list for him was a CC caster.

THM isn't a umbral/astral magic user anymore. THM is pure Fire/Ice/Lightening direct damage with some CC. Our days as debuffs, buffs, heals, and drains are over.... sadly.

They shouldn't even call it thm at all anymore. It's a straight up blm job or no job.
