The '''Red Mage''' {{j|赤魔道士|Akamadōshi}} is a Job class in ''[[Final Fantasy III]]'' gained from the [[Wind Crystal (Term)#Final Fantasy III|Wind Crystal]]. In the opening FMV of the remake version, [[Ingus]] is depicted as a Red Mage. Red Mages use a wide assortment of weapons, and both [[Black Magic (Final Fantasy III)|Black]] and [[White Magic]], but are unable to become true masters of either school of wizardry. Unlike the Red Mages in some other games, Red Mages in ''Final Fantasy III'' don't have [[Dualcast|Doublecast]].

The '''Red Mage''' is a [[Final Fantasy III jobs|job class]] in ''[[Final Fantasy III]]'' gained from the [[Wind Crystal (term)#Final Fantasy III|Wind Crystal]]. In the opening FMV of the 3D version, [[Ingus]] is depicted as a Red Mage. Red Mages use a wide assortment of weapons, and both Black and White [[Magic (Final Fantasy III)|Magic]], but are unable to become true masters of either school of wizardry. Unfortunately, Red Mages don't have access to [[Dualcast|Doublecast]].

*'''Command Ability''' - [[White Magic]] and [[Black Magic]] Levels 1 - 4

*'''Command ability''' - White and Black [[Magic (Final Fantasy III)|Magic]] Levels 1–4
Just like the original ''[[Final Fantasy]]'', the Red Mage can use lower level White and Black Magic. This is mainly useful early in the game, since later on the player will unlock more versatile mage classes. They have weak stat progression in every stat and without the ability to doublecast like in ''[[Final Fantasy V]]'', Red Mages are usually thought to be weak.

Revision as of 17:58, 22 February 2020

Template:Sideicon

Red Mages can use both white and black magic, but cannot use high-level spells from either school.

Description

The bearer of this certificate possesses vast, expansive knowledge of magic and is deemed worthy of the title of Master Red Mage.

Mastery certificate description

The Red Mage is a job class in Final Fantasy III gained from the Wind Crystal. In the opening FMV of the 3D version, Ingus is depicted as a Red Mage. Red Mages use a wide assortment of weapons, and both Black and White Magic, but are unable to become true masters of either school of wizardry. Unfortunately, Red Mages don't have access to Doublecast.

Abilities

NES version

  • Command ability - White and Black Magic Levels 1–4

The Red Mage can use lower level White and Black Magic. This is mainly useful early on, since later the player will unlock more versatile mage classes. They have weak stat progression, and without the ability to doublecast, Red Mages are usually thought to be weak.

3D versions

  • Command ability - White Magic and Black Magic Levels 1–5
Level White Magic Level Black Magic
1 Cure Poisona Sight 1 Fire Blizzard Sleep
2 Aero Toad Mini 2 Thunder Poison Blind
3 Cura Teleport Blindna 3 Fira Blizzara Thundara
4 Libra Confuse Silence 4 Break Blizzaga Shade
5 Curaga Raise Protect 5 Thundaga Raze Erase
