    Role: Caster DPS
    Sub: Magic Support

    Lore: Sages are older, much more experienced magi who have looked beyond their own disciplines, which many mages these days prefer not to do. This wide understanding of magic makes them effective spellcasters for many situations, but the immense amount of time has taken its toll. Sages make way for the new, upcoming mages, hoping that they can instruct them to begin their wider curriculum from an earlier age. Magic is too fascinating to stay in just one corner, after all.

    Unique Mechanic: Heighten Magic - Sages Spell gain in potency based on their Spell Level, mostly gained from casting spells. This goes form Level 1 to Level 9. For each Spell Level below 5, the Sage gains 5% spellcasting speed. For each level above 5, the Sage gains 3% Critical Chance. Each spell level above 1 grants 3% increased potency.

    Limit Break: Ages Past. Calls upon the memory and knowledge of previous Sages, opening a leyline of magical power beneath the targeted area.

    Support Abilities
    Delta Attack: Create a triangular leyline with three points, one centered on you. The other two points may each have one ally within for reduced MP costs as well as freezing their Unique Buff/Mechanic timers. While you are within your point, party members deal increased damage.

    Mana Gift: Create a blossom leyline pattern on the ground. One ally standing within gains MP regeneration. If that party member isn't you, they also refresh cooldowns quicker.

    Abilities - Metamagic: All Metamagics increase Spell MP cost.
    All-Cast: Causes a single target spell to target all nearby targets instead.
    Max-Cast: Cause the next spell cast to be considered level 9 for Potency and Critical chance.
    Min-Cast: Cause the next spell cast to be considered Level 1 for Casting Speed.
    Libra-Cast: Cause the next spell cast to deal 50% less damage, but inflict the target with Libra, causing the next 3 sources of Magical Damage to critically strike.

    Sage Steroids - Masters of magic get to cheat.
    Sagacious Overdrive: For the next 15 seconds, your spells cost no MP and your Metamagics have no cooldown. Reduces Spell level to 1 and MP to 0 when the duration ends.
    Sagacious Inversion: For the next 15 seconds, your damaging spells instead target allies and heal for the amount they would have damaged. Reduces Spell level to 1 and MP to 0 when the duration ends.
    Sagacious 'Meditation': For the next 15 seconds, you become unable utilize Metamagics and gradually restore MP.

    Spellcasting Kit
    Divided between Cast time Nukes/ Dots and instant cast Nukes/Dots.

    Cast Time spells increase Spell Level
    Instant cast spells, aside from Swiftcast, reduce Spell Level.

    Examples
    Magic Missile
    Cast time: 1.5
    Effect: Deal magic damage with a potency of 70. For each two Spell Levels above 1, Magic Missile fires 1 additional missile and takes .75 seconds longer to cast.

    Conflagration
    Cast time: instant
    Effect: Deal Fire damage with a potency of 50, and an additional 30 DoT for 15s. Conflagration's duration increases by 3s for each Spell Level. Reduces Spell Level by 3 on cast.

    Force Wave
    Cast time: 2.5
    Effect: Slam the staff to the ground, dealing unaspected damage with a potency of 150 to nearby enemies. Moving does not interrupt this spell.

    Penultimate Magic
    Instant cast
    MP Cost: 6% per Spell Level
    Effect: Deals 70 potency per Spell Level. Reduces Spell Level to 1.
