Job Idea: Time Mage (DPS)

[Mimilu]

Tidus wasn't really a Time Mage though so much as a swordsman built around speed (Haste/Slow were just to compliment that style). In fact, Time Mage as a melee didn't make much sense to me until looking over how they were in XII.

As for the reasoning for older naming conventions, did you really have to use the word "anachronistic" in referring to Time Mage? xD

While Tidus isn't a Time Mage, he did have elements of time manipulation on his part of the Sphere Grid (Haste/Hastega, Slow/Slowaga, Delay Attack/Buster, and Quick Hit).
Like with my Blue Mage Healer concept, I thought it could be interesting to link it more to a character verses trying to create a job that is an amalgamation of several iterations, like how jobs seem to be usually made in XIV. Especially for Time Mage, who is generally just a buff-heavy caster. I thought going a traditional caster route would make it too similar to AST and maybe even BLM and/or SMN.

And I know what I said when I said "anachronistic". >w>
