[normalforce]

Pirates!!!!! oh you meant water :P

I only regret that I have but one like to give.

Only the Seventh Umbral Era can cast Water.

Which will flood Eorzea and change its face forever.

I dont remember if they said they were releasing another class anytime soon.

But if they do release Arcanist to have some of the missing stuff I mentioned, I will be super happy again to not only get the skills back but to have a third mage.

Let us hope that is their plan, because I do not believe SE would remove so many skills without their being a plan, I just wish they would not leave us in the dark. Maybe they will answer it in a dev question or something.

He already said the game is lacking in mages and that he plans to add another one at some point.
He said this in several interviews and in the last live video aswell.

I'm more curious how this will work on when Black Mage is added. Since I thought Yoshida said you can't mix-and-match actions as a job.

I wouldn't see how that would make a huge difference, blm would have to just use the spells they are given.

Most mage classes in MMO's dont' have access to more than 3 magic schools.

It's probably unlikely though that they would restrict aero and stone from being used, espcially considering you require con 15 to get the first quest. (which suggests at least one if not both of those spells will be obtained before 15)

Guess it depends on what happens. If they add something weak to earth/wind and BLM can't use it, that's going to suck a bit.

Assuming we are even keeping the same elemental wheel.

Funny thing is that Ifrit being fire based should be weak to wind and Aero belongs to CNJ, so would a CNJ be better at DDing Ifrit or would a THM ?

Does a THM lose any magic potency if he uses cross class magic spells such as Aero ?

Assuming they keep the system the same I'd assume you lose potency, but don't quote me on that.

Also just because I'm curious. Which elements are considered astral and which are considered umbral?

They said "some" actions will not be able to cross classed
