Red Mage is Range Combat? (Discussion)

[EdwinLi]

W---.

Well at least they have 10 Job Quest to cover the Red Mage Storyline in 4.0 but I do have some concerns how well it may be flushed out with just 10 Job Storyline quests with the usual 5 Job Story quests per Story Arc being level 50 to 60 for the 1st story Arc as the Apprentice Story Arc and level 60 to 70 for the Master Story Arc as the 2nd Job Story Arc. Else they could go for all 10 Job Quests as the Apprentice Story Arc like they did with Astro and Machinist and save the Master Story Arc for 5.0.

Astro and Machinist had their 1st story arc span from lvl 30 to 60 for their first 10 Job Quest which was enough to give a full story but they never reached their Master Story Arc which will be their 4.0 Job Storyline.

Dark knight had their Apprentice Story Arc for level 30 to 50 which covered enough for the WoL to become a Master level Dark Knight lore wise and then go through the Master Story Arc in level 50 to 60.

Quest Lore Stuff

I think you are "under-thinking" the quests. if you just take into account the possible skills we will get from quest, then yes RDM would have only 10 quests, between 50-70. But sometimes SE adds in additional quests after the skill quest, or even before it to express more about the lore/story. So while 5 quests are a given, a similar format to the HW job quests, we don't know how the flow from 60-70 will be. For all we know we could have 10 quests from 60-70 alternating between a trait and a skill. It's all speculation at this point.
