Square Enix Favourite Final Fantasy Mage

In the Final Fantasy series, there have always been mages, or "magic-users", as you might call them. We've seen red, black, white and blue, time, summoners, and I'm probably forgetting something too. Which is your favourite?

 

Summoner! Don't you guys love the JOB system!!!

I choose summoner, cuz I'm a summoner and I like summoners.

I think what made me choose summoners is the fact that in the previous games, I had a lot of good times with them.
FFt: I trained my summoners to be powerful, and I took pride in my accomplishment
FF4: Rydia, never failed me. I used her to beat the most of the bosses as well as the final boss.
FF5: Reina is my summoner, however I didn't complete the game
FF6: VERY ESSENTIAL, I used a lot of summons to beat bosses
FF7: My firsy ff game intoduced me to the art of summoning
FF8: I fought Omega Weapon jsut for the sake to aquiring my precious Eden. Siren, Bahamut, Shiva, and Carbunkle are my favorites.
FF9: The main theme is summoning! EIko and garnet powers are awesome!
FF10: Yuna! My favorite character.... yet Many more summoning experiences awaits me in that game
FF11: You will all see me a summoner. If you ever need a summoner in your party, I'm there

convincing isn't it...

 

Have you seen the summoners in FFX? I think that they have too much power. I blew away the last bosses in two attacks with my Bahamut, or with one blow from Anima.
I like the Black Mage costumes: the blue robe and orange hat, right out of the first game. Lulu's outfit was cool as well (although I doubt they'd come in my size ... or gender ). The best part of Lulu as a black mage was her hilarious weapons, like the "Cactuar Spy" or "Wicked Cait Sith", and let's not forget the "Morphing Mog".
My beef with the White Mages is mostly that whatever they do can be done by somebody else with more efficiency. For example, any character can use a healing item, and the white magic spell Holy is always too expensive to use effectively when you can Flare for less. However, when you consider that in the last two FF games, the summoners have also been white mages, I guess I'll have to reconsider ...
I never liked the red mages, particularly in the first game. They were too expensive at the start, needing the same expensive weapons and armour as a fighter, plus the added cost of magic.
The time mages I thought were pretty good in Final Fantasy Tactics, but that's about it.
As for the blue mages, I just liked Quina. S/he was hilarious. Otherwise, I don't really care for the blue magic scene, although there are some fun ways to learn techniques, such as eating your foes.

 

FF8 mages

Is Quistis a blue mage? I means she did use blue magic didn't she?

An' isn't Ultimecia a powerful time mage? I mean time compression was her main objective in the game?

One thing I hate about FF8 that there are no specific job classification. No diffrence between a summoner, time, white, black, snd blue mage.

Hmm maybe they are red mages???

 

i chosse no one of them

 

Argh , poll too confusing
Stop with the FF polls already
Its a great game and all but weve nearly voted on everything about it

 

What did Yuna choose?

Isn't it obvious? hehe
Black and Red mages are cool too. Red mages are however more powerful. They could use black and white magic, but only some can summon. Like in FF8 they all can summon, but in FF5 they can't...

 

Nearly everything isn't enough!
Just face facts, Sir Heero. Most of us around here like Squaresoft at least a bit, and therefore should be expected to be fans of the Final Fantasy series. If you have a problem with that, either go to another forum, or don't reply. Simple, ya?

 

There is always something to vote on with Final Fantasy.. Because the Fantasy is NEVER final!

See you space Cowboy

 

An idiot's humble opinion

Well in my opinion its better to be red than dead!
Red mages have the best of both worlds, balancing a destructive offensive arsenal with defensive, stat boosting, and healing spells. And, while they may not live up to the full potential in either class, they are still very powerful. Also, they arent as severely restricted with weapons and armor like Black and White Mages are. But dang, if they could only summon...

(Hmmm i think i proved that i have too much time...)

 

I chose blue mage. You forgot Quistis DAMMIT!

 

...

Uhm... it might just be me but I don't really think Quistis is a Mage-type, heh...

I COULD be wrong, but... yeah...

Anyways, I'm all for Red Mage (or, as I call him, Grey Mage! ).

 

Definately black mage, if only for the pure destructive power. Also, Lulu and Vivi are two of my favorite FF characters, so I've got to go with black. Why do black mages always have cutesy names? Strange...

 

I choose black mages. I am not too fond of Vivi but I love Lulu, I really like her outfit and her personality, cool calm and collected but with a short fuse. Like me ^_^.

Anyway after seeing her outfit, I have since wanted to make her cosplay outfit, now thats a challenge.

And anyway what about the mages from earlier games? I dont thinm I saw terra there, shes kind of a black mage except everyone learns magic sooner or later in that game.

^_^

 

Blue

Blue is most my type, I think, so blue.
