Thread: New interview from Famitsu Connect-On Magazine Aug.2011

Glad to hear a bit more about the planned changes. Sadly of course timelines are absent. I am hoping for a mid July release to kick things off but who knows. I do hope we get more info everyday till the patch comes outs.

Thank you, Kristina! Very much appreciate the translation

Except jobs are meant to be THE choice for party play. Giving Thaum white mage wouldn't make much sense considering they've been taking great strides to make Conjurer the main healer lately. You should level the healing class to get the healing job >.>

Black Mage for Thaumaturge would make sense if the quest to gain the job came from the Arrzaneth Ossuary and if the black mage concept was divorced from elemental spells.
White Mage for Thaumaturge would make sense if the quest involves joining the sect worshipping Nald.

Black Mage as elemental Nuker makes sense for Conjurers.

Was this worth bringing a 2 months old post back to life for?
