What do you mean? It’s an arcanist (poison tactician) that found a scholar (faerie tactician) job stone.

I don’t understand what you mean about the colour thing, warrior with its four buttons also uses every colour under the sun, white mage should be using brown, blue and greenish on its offensive spells alone not this bland sparkliness it’s been lumped with, ast has incredibly pretty visuals in a multitude of colours, sage is a mess on every level and it’s not like dps are any different (see samurai, dragoon, blue mage).

The mix of archaic words is probably meant to indicate that the job’s been lost since nym fell like at least 20 years before ARR.

Sage is clearly a new job that at best is copied homework and at worst an uninspired joke not even living up to how it was sold to the playerbase. It has not had time to develop any identity beyond “bad scholar” and until it gets a few expansions under its belt is not at all sensible to compare with the established healers (ast, the next most recent being added in heavensward).
