Haven't gotten to hit the Shadowbringers questline for Black Mage yet, but think I glimpsed something about it referring to golems again.

I love being a Black Mage. I love voidsent and Mhachi lore. I love the invocation of Nald'Thal. I love that it is a full-throttle destructive form of magic and how that freaks out some NPCs.

Really enjoyed the original Thaumaturge questline. Was okay with beast tribe shebang. Liked the bit where we get side-eyed by conjurer Zhai'a as possible mass murderers. Was... weirdly disappointed with Shatotto and the golems.

It just feels like the most bland and boring direction this job quest could take given all the lore that ties in. Mhach raids are for all classes, along with their voidsent. Nothing special gets referenced for Black Mages there.

I really, really hope Shadowbringers doesn't keep fixating on the generic rock monsters and adds more lore-relevant twists. Don't know if people generally agree or disagree, so curious to hear your thoughts. Won't be offended by debate! :)
