What would you do with TP as a caster

[Cabalabob]

In XI and 1.0 mages got weaponskills that had various utilities, just damage ones, ones that decrease targets defense/m.defense/evasion, some that inflicted debuffs like blind, some that restored hp/mp. But this was a different system where weaponskills worked more like this games limit break, they took a long time to build especially as a mage. Here it would be kind of broken with the way tp works, you'd have a weaponskill that essentially gives you on demand debuffs or mp restore which would take away from other jobs like brd/mch.

Maybe one day they can introduce a mage that's kind of like a counterpart to DRK where it has a stance that slowly drains their tp in exchange for a buff that's the only thing I can think they could do with tp that wouldn't be broken or undermine other jobs.
