Job Suggestion: Time/Dimensional Mage

[Yellow]

Have you ever wanted to be Louisoix?

Well now you can!

Here’s my suggestion for the Time Mage/Dimensional Mage job (TM for short).

The TM in Final Fantasy has played the role of a buffing support with access to some crazy abilities (such as Meteor and Comet). Therefore, this concept allocates TM as a healer/support class – and while I’ve really wanted to make it a DPS/Heal class (depending on stance), I’ve been convinced to keep it to one role. We’ve seen Louisoix use time magic to save the warriors of light before the Calamity, and while there’s a few abilities that have been spread across the other jobs, I still think we can fit it in.

You can find the abilities in the comments below (1000 character limit makes it difficult for these kinds of posts). Take them as you will, the names and order in which skills are learned aren’t too important to me.
