Asterisk Guide: Time Mage
Asterisk Holder: Eloch Quentis Khamer VIII
Origin: Final Fantasy V
Was It In Bravely Default?: Yes
Overview: Time Magic focuses on messing with time to raise or lower target’s speed, and it also grants powerful spells such as Gravity, Meteor, and Reraise. It also contains the Quake spells, allowing for some inexpensive Earth-element damage early in the game. (Though by the time you get Quaga, you’ll probably be opting for Summoner’s Girtablulu instead.) Time Mages are also known for their Slow World and Hasten World support abilities—they can be tricky to take advantage of, but a master can use them to take control of any battle.
Personal Thoughts: Time Mages have always had somewhat questionable taste in headwear, but Bravely Default really dialed up the weirdness. Magnolia is sporting a slightly different look in Bravely Second, but I can’t decide if it’s just as weird or even weirder. Anyway, I got a good amount of use out of Time Mage: I’ve been around long enough to know what Haste and Gravity can do, and I wasn’t about to miss that. Personally, Slow World and Hasten World sound too difficult for me, and I’ve only used Hasten World because I was told it would make the final boss easy. (It does.) You should definitely take a look at Time Mage, but don’t feel bad if you find it’s not your thing.
