Learn how to effectively play the White Mage in Final Fantasy III. Discover its strengths as a healer, its limitations in combat, and when to upgrade to Devout.
Walkthrough
- 1The White Mage is the typical healer and supporter.
- 2While almost incapable of combat (do not attack with the staves you equip because you will deal double digit damage), the safety and survivability the White Mage provides is unmatched.
- 3You absolutely need one of these, and not just for boss fights, but for emergencies where your supplies may run low.
- 4White Mages can even learn Teleport later on which lets you escape instantly from dungeons in a pinch.
- 5Your mage will be able to attack with air elemental spells such as Aero but for the most part, they are your defensive team member.
- 6Keep your White Mages in the back formation at all times.
- 7White Mages are not designed to be end-game jobs, as they cannot use magic beyond level 7, barring them from powerful spells like Arise.
- 8As soon as you’ve restored all crystals, you can upgrade to Devout.
Tips
- White Mages excel at healing and support.
- Avoid attacking with staves as damage is minimal (double digit damage).
- Utilize the Teleport spell for quick escapes from dungeons.
- Employ air elemental spells like Aero for offensive capabilities.
- Always position White Mages in the back row for maximum survivability.
