Eh, you’re doing a disservice by trying to say it should be Black Mage with different elements. It’s not known for tossing out Tornado, Flood, and Quake. It’s got a lot of directions it can go but big AoE direct damage really isn’t the one it should be. In terms of possible designs it definitely has room for healing or casting, but the style you advocate for the latter isn’t fitting.

Eh, wasn’t quite the direction I meant. I just meant if we get a Chemist it’ll be... well, a mage. In robes with a mace, not tights and a gun. Maybe it’ll get a jacket and shorts like Scholar. But it’ll still be the same basic build. It’ll have spell speed, it’ll cast spells, it’ll use MP, so on and so forth.
