Profile
On the eastern edge of Abalathia's Spine lies the mountainous region of Gyr Abania.
It is in these elevated lands that people took shelter, when a burning star guided them away from the Sixth Umbral Calamity's treacherous floodwaters. The survivors gathered from near and far, and amongst them were refugees of the sorcerous cities of Mhach and Amdapor.
These sworn enemies buried their history for the sake of the future, and cast aside their vestments of black and white. Upon the remnants of their arts a new discipline was built, and the first red mages stepped forward with rapiers in hand to fight back against the rising tides of destruction.Lodestone
Red Mage is a hybrid ranged/melee style achieved via high-speed positioning. In battle, Red Mages use rapiers for melee strikes and Red Magic for ranged attacks. They deal massive damage by linking multiple spells with Dualcast and following them up with melee attacks.
Story
Stormblood
Equipment
Red Mages are armed with both rapiers and a magicked crystal medium. When casting spells, the rapier is held with the blade facing downward and the crystal placed on the weapon's pommel, giving it the appearance of a mage's scepter. They share Caster gear with Summoners and Black Mages.
At level 50 a Red Mage automatically receives a "Red" set, which is analogous to the artifact or job armor of other classes, along with the first rapier available in the game. A Red Mage does not receive any similar armor at level 60, but after reaching level 70 they may claim a "Duelist's" set and an Antiquated Murglein, the uniform and weapon of the job-instructor X'rhun Tia, as well as the uniform and weapon depicted in promotional material for the job.
Job Gauge
The Job Gauge was introduced to players in 4.0 Stormblood. These are on-screen indicators that are specific to each job. The Red Mage uses the Balance Gauge.
The Job Gauge indicates the current amount of the two types of Mana, White and Black (shown in the gauge as blue). Job actions associated with white magic such as Veraero (wind) will add white mana to the left side of the gauge, while actions associated with black magic such as Verthunder will add black mana to the gauge. There are multiple actions that will add a specific amount of both. The goal is to keep the mana balanced as it rises up the gauge.
If one type of mana grows faster than the other, the gauge becomes difficult to balance out and players will not be able to use enchanted versions of the Riposte, Zwerchhau, Redoublement, or Moulinet weaponskills until the gauge is back in balanace. Once enchanted, these skill deal additional damage. As long as the gauge stays properly balanced and above 30 points of mana, the crystal at the top will be red; if unbalanced, the crystal will have the color of the higher mana type. Using the enchanted weaponskills will remove mana from the gauge, starting the cycle over.
Abilities
All spells cost MP to cast unless stated otherwise, however, the MP cost varies depending on the level and class of the Adventurer, the spell in question. All descriptions are based on action attributes and bonuses attained by level 70.

Jobs can select and use up to five role actions, while classes can select and use up to ten.

Trivia
- Due to the game following the traditional MMO trinity, this incarnation of Red Mage only has access to two basic healing spells; however, due to Dualcast, they are in practice the best offensive class for healing others, and the best class overall for reviving fallen allies, as they can negate the long cast time and raise up to four allies in quick succession, unlike even healers.
- The "Ver-" prefix on a Red Mage's elemental and healing spells may come from the Latin verus meaning "true", or from vermilion, describing a pigment and shade of red.
