Blue Mage (Tactics A2)



Blue Mage is a job in Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, which combines magical abilities learned from monsters and the use of sabers to damage the enemy. They have well balanced stats, with slightly low Evade. A Blue Mage learns an ability when a monster or an enemy Blue Mage attacks the unit with that ability. To learn any abilities at all, Blue Mages need to equip the Support Ability "Learn" (learned through the Light Saber). However, Learn can be equipped by any class, so the character needn't take even a single level in Blue Mage if they don't wish to.

Some skills require special circumstances to be learned: Roulette and Cornered, for instance, can only be learned if the Blue Mage has the Reraise status when hit. Other spells are passive and monsters would never cast them on you: the only way to obtain War Dance, Angel Whisper, White Wind, Dragon Force and Mighty Guard is by controlling the monster with a Beastmaster or confusing the monster. Charming the monster will not allow the monster to use its beneficial abilities.
