Black Mage (Tactics A2)



Black Mage is a Job in Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift usable by humes, nu mou, and moogles. Nu mou, with their higher Magic stat, are the best race for the Job, though it also grants the highest Magic growth possible for hume and moogle.

Since Black Mages specialize in elemental damage, they are especially useful in exploiting an enemy's elemental weakness, which can be done easily with the aid of the Geomancy support skill. Like in previous games, Black Mages have an high Magic stat, decent Resistance, and high MP, but they are frail and best kept from harm.

A good technique is to have a Black Mage equip robes that absorb elemental damage, then target both the enemy and themselves with the proper respective spells for a potent combination of damaging and self-healing. If the unit has the passive ability Geomancy equipped while having any elemental-absorbing gear no HP will be rewarded.

Black King Nware of Cinquleur is a Black Mage and a worthy adversary. Montblanc also joins the party with this Job, as he did in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance.

Requirements

 * To Use (Hume Only): Master 1 White Mage A-Ability.

Black Magick
The elemental magicks of the BLACK MAGE strike with the power of fire, ice, and lightning.

Note

 * The Moogle Black Mage are better than Hume Black Mage since they have better MP growth.
 * The Nu Mou Black Mage are the best amongst the others, since their Magick growth is very high.
