Warmage

[Swagmasta]

I dunno the specifics of this "Warmage" job, but from the name it just sounds like an artillery mage that focuses on battlefield combat.

But Black Mage and Thamaturge already kind of fill this. Their lore is literally to overwhelm and obliterate any and all opposition through the use of black magic. There's several cutscenes and cinematics showing the might of this.

Nah nah, Warmage is basically a combination of warrior and black mage, not just pure black mage.

A warmage is someone who specializes is damaging spells rather than restorative and is generally better trained in martial warfare than a typical mage, wearing heavier armor and using more powerful weapons.

But really, the red mage is already pretty much a warmage, the only difference being their lack of armor. But the toolset and greater reliance on melee is very similar.

Yeah, this guy gets what Warmage is!

But you are right, the current incarnation of Red Mage is similar aside from the armor.

Which makes me doubly curious to see how Warmage would be handled if we were to get it!
