Thread: A Disciple of Magic for 3.0?

I want a job focused more on support spells. Seriously, how have we not seen a Haste spell since this game was released? Garleans had that figured out ages ago! I would love for them to add a class which can not only buff the party, but could debuff the mob. And for more than a mere 4 seconds at a time.

Haste decreases cast times and increases auto attack speed significantly.

Skill speed marginally increases recast on -some-abilities. Guess which one is better.

They've already screwed up then with Ninja.. it's already become a job to 'have at all cost'. Honestly, the sooner SE get their head out of this stupid balancing act they're trying to master the sooner we can get some genuinely interesting game mechanics into FFXIV.

Because Haste is completely pointless as pretty much every Job can haste themselves. Monk with GL, Ninja with Huton, White Mage with Presence of Mind, etc.

Sorry, couldn't resist. I'm sure it'll show up eventually; maybe 4.0 will take place in Doma.

In any case, it would be pretty cool if they could find a way to make Blue Mage work, but I kinda doubt it. Red Mage is now the only one of the 6 original classes that hasn't made an appearance yet, so that would be my bet.

Something really unexpected would be Sage, if only because it would likely break the holy trinity and be impossible to balance.

Psh, I want them to make it a Tank, just because everyone expects it to be a healer.
