Doesn't it make more sense for Thaum. to have Raise/Rebirth II?

Thaum description:
The guild is centered at the Arrzaneth Ossuary in Ul'dah, within whose hallowed walls are said to reside powers of life, death, and the beyond.

Conj description:
Conjury calls upon elemental forces present in nature and concentrates them to a potency at which spells can be weaved.

Anyhow this made me confused because I felt pretty confident that THM would have White Mage, and Conj would have Black Mage based on their guilds once the job introduction patch would hit. Now I just don't know again. Which one am I supposed to level?

And so it begins.

The intention I believe was for them to be the same, 'cept different.

Since Yoshi took over, it's been headed towards a CON=WHM, THM=BLM idea.

If it makes it easier, tell yourself that cure and raise are light elemental spells.

[DoctorMog]

No, No it doesn't.

[LillithaFenimore]

Well, the thing is this game is going under some major reconstruction, so don't be shocked if the lore behind CON and THM has the same reconstruction going on :/

[Platinumstorm]

And so it begins.

Skill wise and story wise it makes more sense for Thaum to be WHM. There only needs to be one revision to their description
"Thaumaturges are unparalleled in their powers of destruction"

Reversing these roles are like destroying each of the guild's lore without reassigning the guilds to different cities and revising every mention of them in the game to be cohesive.

[Jennestia]

No. THM is more tipping towards Necromancy given certain quests which is a whole different ball park from reviving someone from unconsciousness.

[Corrderio]

I kind of thought it made sense myself since the CON story seems to revovle around the elementals, so it seemed like a no brainer for CON to become a BLM.

Personally, I feel that both mage classes need to have at least 2 jobs each for things to be fair and make sense. Conjurer should, in my opinion, have white mage and black mage. Then Thaumaturge could possibly have green mage and time mage.

I always thought of Cure has a Water spell. With that blue drop that falls on people in some games...maybe I'm thinking Secret of Mana....
