Talk0this wiki
Added by BluerfnMystic Knight (魔法剣士, Mahōkenshi?, lit. "Magic Fencer"), also known as Rune Fencer, Sorcerer, Spellblade or Spell Fencer, is a recurring job in the Final Fantasy series. Skilled in both magic and swordsmanship, they fuse both arts into Spellblade and are resistant to magic as a whole.
Appearances
Edit
Final Fantasy III Edit
- Main article: Dark Knight (Final Fantasy III)
In the NES version of Final Fantasy III, the Dark Knight was instead a Mystic Knight, and was able to use White Magic up to Level 3.
Final Fantasy VEdit
- Main article: Mystic Knight (Final Fantasy V)
The Mystic Knight fuses magic spells which includes damaging spells or status inducing spells into their equipped sword. The wielder will smite enemies with his/her Spellblade.
Final Fantasy VIIEdit
While not having an actual job system, in early development, Cloud was labeled as a "Berserker (Mystic Knight)". While this was scrapped, he does retain high Strength and can use magic efficiently.
Final Fantasy IXEdit
Final Fantasy IX has a strong allusion to this job. Provided Vivi is in the party and not incapacitated, Steiner can use Sword Magic with Vivi's aid. Only the damaging Black Magic spells (e.g. Fire) can be used as Sword Magic, not status-inducing spells (e.g. Slow), and Vivi must know the spell in question. The attack uses Steiner's turn and MP, and does not affect Vivi's MP or ATB gauge.
Final Fantasy XIEdit
Final Fantasy XI: Seekers of Adoulin brings with it the Rune Fencer job, described as "quick with a blade as well as an incantation", similar to the style of the Mystic Knight.
