I'm going to be a Tarutaru White Mage. I love healing and support classes and play them in every game.
I don't know a secondary yet. Nothing is jumping out at me at the moment. I'm leaning to Beast tamer or Summoner but I don't know if those jobs would interfere with my healing duties.
Is there a job that can debuff, stun, slow, charm or put enemies to sleep?
Beastmaster would be a bad job to sub with as a white mage. Summoner is also not a good support job with pretty much anything. Bard can buff and debuff and put enemies to sleep. You could try that. Most people believe it to be a bad support, but you can try it and see if you like it. Black mage can slow enemies and put them to sleep. That would also give you more MP to cast magic with.
Now imjust gonna ask questions on things i dont understand.
Like the RedMage. I heard that it uses the skills of the whitemage and the blackmage put together. I also heard that it could only have half the skill level spells. So if the RedMage was level 30, he could only use the level 15 whitemage and blackmage spells, is this true?
If it is true, wouldn't a red mage be a shitty support job?
That's not true at all. The truth is that red mages can use black and white magic, but the high level spells are denied to them. If that were true red mages would only be able to cas Cure II at level 22. They can cast that spell at level 14. They also get spells that the other mages don't get, like enthunder, enaero, etc. that give their weapon elemenal attacks as well.
Thanks for the info samusic, I'm basically looking for a sub class that will keep my white mage alive when the baddies turn on me. Like in other games i could root or stun anything that attacked me and move away so the fighter can get its attention again.
I think that it would be wisest to pick a support job that would enhance your job and how well you can do it. Subbing something like white mage/warrior just wouldn't be a good idea. You wouldn't be able to use any warrior abilities, and the vitality given to you probably wouldn't make a drastic difference. If you subbed black mage, however, you could have more MP to cast magic and you would be able to bind a monster. You could also try out bard and go full support.
What I want to do is become a ranger, and a beast tamer. I will be an Elaavan who loves the wilderness and cares for it. Hope everyone is unique, and cant wait till this game is out!
I dunno... for some reason I want to be a redmage (as my main job) badly... not sure what I'd want for a support job but perhaps a summoner, ninja, or monk?
Summoner really isn't a very good job to have as a support job because your summon's levels and abilities correspond with your summoner level. So, even though you could use every summon, they wouldn't be very strong.
I'm pretty sure i want a samurai. I like the ability to chain together lots of different attacks. I'm not sure what will go well as a support job for the samurai though; possibly samurai/monk (so i have heard), or samurai ranger (since samurai are apparently proficient with the bow to some extent). Any info on this would be appreciated.
Samurai aren't proficient at bow more than any other job. Ranger doesn't have a lot to add to the samurai job because samurai are melee attackers. None of the abilities would really augment any of the samurai job's strenths. The skills that a ranger has aren't very useful to a samurai. However, samurai has a lot to offer ranger with its TP abilities.
I personally have yet to play the game, but from what I've researched and heard... that is what I gathered. Their songs help the "party" in general, so if you've ever played EQ, it looks somewhat similar to the EQ bard songwise.
I think, if I can pull it off, I'll be a theif/bard or bard/theif. 2 class types I haven't really played in other MMORPG's... so hoping to have some fun with it.
