White Mage Guide by Birgitte/Weaponry

= Weaponry Selection = I am dividing this section up into weapons you can use when you are Healing your party and/or when you are resting(You will want to program both of these weapons into a resting macro) and the weapons you can use if you are Meleeing/Soloing. Inside these divisions I am showing what each weapon is, either Staff or Club. Now there is much debate over which is better for a White Mage, but both have their own good qualities. It all depends on your level and what you are looking for out of your weapon.

At lower levels it is considered all right for you, as a White Mage, to melee. Considering the lack of Spells you have, you might as well level your weapon of choice in your party as long as you are not neglecting your duties. At higher levels though, it is unwise to melee in a normal Experience Point party, due to the enormous amount of Spells you have and your duty to Cure, Haste, Protect, Shell, Remove Status Effects via -Na Spells or Erase, and keep Bar- Spells on all of your party members.

It is best to keep your Staff and Club up as you go along. Since it is not in your or your party's best interest for you to be meleeing during the experience getting, it is advised to go regularly to Skill Up. You will find having Club and Staff at level will benefit you greatly for when you go out to Solo and do other fun things. Hexa Strike is wonderful for Solo and Ballista. Spirit Taker is great when you are Soloing or Power Leveling someone and you have been getting repeatedly hit, therefor gaining TP, and just want some relatively Free MP back.

I did not use all of these weapons myself, but I feel that one should have an idea of what is out there. Each person has a different idea of what they want for their White Mage, so its only fair to include the other weapons as alternate choices to the obvious. I will BOLD the ones that I myself used.
