Lightning Mage

[GrimGale]

Let's name this new concept for a fourth healer that I've seen floating around in various forms: Lightning Mage!

• Wields a hammer
• Heals through the power of lightning (a different direction from BLM damaging lightning)
• Magic Hammer or similar move is a must (ty BLU for this awesome reminder)
• Can borrow from Thor, Zeus and similar lore, but own it in a unique, cuddly, Final Fantasy way

Not sure of specifics, of course. There must be a strong Lightning focus, but if healing doesn't make sense through this "element" then of course I'd be open to Water-based healing. Perhaps Lightning Mage is strong with both lightning and water, and has higher-level (50+) skills that combine the two together for damage, perhaps an AoE in the style of Holy/Gravity/Art of War.

Lightning is described in lore as the element of cathalysis. An element of transformation, transfer of energy.

I don't see a hammer wielding lightning mage (Thor) as a healer but I could see a mechanomancer, as one.

A class that wears hammers, and has a powerpack on their back, charging up medical turrets with energy and setting down power stations for people in their vicinity to get charged up. I think a tech based class couls potentially use lightning as a healing force.

Hmm, was envisioning more of a harnessing of the world's natural energies instead of tech. Something more positive than what Ramuh stands for, but continuing with sorcery (i.e. plz not an engineer Cid-healer).
