We need a Mystic Knight/Rune Fencer Job

[Mugear_bahamut]

There's a high chance they'll add Mystic Knight at some point. I wonder what kind of weapons he would use. Maybe dual swords.

スレイヤーDPS
魔導剣士
ルーンブレード(両手)
ルーンブレードを両手一本ずつ持っている。竜騎士とリーパー同様エネルギーが溜まったら赤フェーズに入る。
それぞれ範囲攻撃の形があると思うのですが、竜騎士は直線上、リーパーは前方三角形、魔導剣士は円形。
赤フエーズの時は魔法が使えて、遠距離から詠唱ありの攻撃が出来ます。赤魔導士の逆パターン。

Translation:
Role: Maiming DPS
Rune Fencer
Dual sword wielder. Both DRG and RPR charge resources and go into enhanced phase(This is before DRG rework).
They have AoEs that are shaped differently; DRG is straight lines, RPR is cones, so Rune Fencer might use circular AoEs.
During Rune Fencer's enhanced phase, like a reversed RDM, they can cast magical attacks with cast times .

Well, since the Mystic Knight is always represented by a arab swordsman (or in case of FFXI a fancy Dark Knight) I think curved blades would be more accurate.

Not always!



Granted this job is named spellblade but it's literally the same thing. I do hope this is a future job though.

(Jokingly being pedantic, don't take this super seriously)

This is Blue Red Mage.

This is Blue Red Mage.

Final Fantasy Wiki says it's a Mystic Knight/Spellblade from Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift.

I might be reading too into it, but I am almost certain they were joking about the fact that Spellblade in FFT:A2 is literally just Red Mage but melee.

And as someone who still to this day plays the game regularly(currently doing an all Blue Mage Run with a Luso named..Bluso), it seriously is just Melee Red Mage with a Blue coat

Nah, I'm pretty sure it's Blue Red Mage.

I'd not mind either versions tbh. Whether it's FF5 Mystic Knight or FF11 Rune fencer, both are cool!
