Geomancer

[Shougun]

Eh just to be clear I called it GeoKnight because I thought it too far from Geomancer lol. I like names to mean something and making Geomancer into GeoKnight but calling it still Geomancer would be probably a mistake, I mean you could try it but I feel it a better management of expectations to not do that. I agree that would be an incredibly unlikely result of Geomancer specifically and it would however work fine under its own unique school that may have some relationship.

As for if a caster style brusier could exist.... Keep saying it can't and I'll watch it become more likely lol. Don't challenge Yoshida like that XD. He likes to be break expectations, be a contrarian. I think the role of a magical juggernaut could be an interesting one to fill, since it isn't filled too often in general and I think FF art style of it would be particularly compelling. Unlike say another sword user, or another mage job that plays at a distance. Doesn't mean I think they'll be bad just because they are common (they are common for a reason), but that something weird can be fun too (but like I said managing expectations by name would be nice, to not side swipe people).

Also doesn't have to relate to Geomancer, I just think it could been a great thematic combo for a bruiser mage that constructs onto the battlefield. Runefencer, as someone mentioned, read with some similar vibes (from the description, I actually didn't play past WotG in FFXI).

I still imagine the most likely outcome to be Geomancer that is a DD, maybe some mace if it actually relates to someone but nothing like a bruiser mage.
