Necromancer: Discussion of the dead

[Andrien]

Right, and those abilities could have simply been added to BLM and not hurt the game at all. They're not Necromancer abilities like you put it, they're black mage abilities that have been added to the necromancer class because they needed skills not already in the game to fill out that job.

The reason you gave to add in Necromancer was so that it would complete the set. Classes aren't Pokemon cards, they should not be added in just so an arbitrary set of rules can be met. There are a LOT more pet class options than beast master, summoner, and necromancer. There's mind control and enslavement, there's morphing objects, crafting slaves, there's spirit-splitting for you or your enemy... the list goes on. Even if we added in Necromancer, it would not complete the set, not even close. Considering that one of your arguments about why Necromancer would be a good class is that it would complete this set, this is a fallacious argument.

Are you telling me that BLM had spells like Doomsday, Dark Flare, Meltdown all in FF1, FF2, FF3, and in FF4 too? Stop with your speculations, because they're false.

I thought mind control fall into the BST category of charming animals. Morpher is not a pet job. They capture monsters and use their abilities as their own. That sounds like a Blue Mage to me. What the hell is a crafting slave? Are you even talking about Final Fantasy?

Again a weak attempt of just down playing.

*stuff*

I had this big post explaining everything to you but I realized it would simply fall on deaf ears. Please stop trying to use terms you don't understand, please do at least a modicum of research, and please play other games if you're having trouble comprehending basic ideas like morphing an object into a servant or crafting a slave.

Instead of trying to insult my intelligence, try posting something without twisting the truth, or with correct information, or something with a valid point that is base on the thread topic. Main point, my first comment to you was about why Necromancer would be cool. You responded with an invalid statement. End of story.

Secondly, I assume you meant Morpher, it is an actual job in Tactics Advance after you unlock 5 BST abilities. Finally, If you're talking about Alchemist as in morphing items together, then that is a different story. There is already a guild for it. If that was not what you meant then I was mistaken.
