Red Mage: The one class that will be impossible to impliment

[Kat_Manx]

Red Mage IS this, Red Mage NEVER was that... /facepalm

Red Mage.. is different. In like..every game that it is in.. and all games count. Even FF11. But alas, they could make it different, yet again. Yes?

I've only seen one constant: That outfit.

It is indeed a good outfit.

Hmmm...



In-line with topic...

Am I the only one who actually likes the FFXII Red (War)mage and can see it implemented in a MMO? Asides from wielding maces, they were the only job discipline to use Arcane Magicks, along with Black and White Magicks. Extending that idea from a mystic-fencer type class won't be totally out of the question either.

x.x Wow, how did they make the RDM outfit look so bad..

If it hasn't been mentioned already the WoW enhancement shaman is kind of a RDM, minus the totems, magic dogs and obvious visual differences; hit guys with magically augmented melee weapon, shoot magics, limited healing ability.

Ret Paladins also meet the requirements. Enchant your weapon (seals/enspell), limited magic (exorcism/elemental nukes), limited healing (flash of light/lower tier cures than a WHM). The only difference being WoW paladins can remove debuffs and up until Cataclysm they also had auras.

Bravely Default still wins the prize for worst RDM outfit design. Lightning's RDM outfit is the close second. As far as grand prize for awesome RDM design:
