The Black Mage in Final Fantasy 14 Crystal World is a ranged magic class. They possess extremely destructive magic, capable of turning the tide in large-scale battles and can quickly defeat opponents in one-on-one fights with high burst damage. Many players who enjoy ranged damage are preparing to choose this class, so they want to know what the Black Mage's skills are. Below is an introduction to his skills.

His basic attack consists of 3 segments, all single-target. His "Ice Seal" can launch an ice elemental area-of-effect (AoE) attack on the target and nearby enemies, granting him the maximum stacks of "Polar Ice". "Polar Ice" increases the speed of magic recovery, reduces the cost of fire magic, and decreases the power of such elemental magic.

His "Explosion" can unleash a fire elemental AoE attack on all enemies within range, gaining the maximum stacks of "Stellar Fire". This effect increases the cost of fire magic but boosts its power, while reducing the cost and power of ice magic. His "Thunder Magic" is a direct damage skill that increases the attack range based on the charge time, with three tiers in total; the longer the charge, the larger the range.

His "Mystic Ice" launches an ice elemental magic attack on the target, followed by another attack on the target and surrounding enemies. Each hit causes ice damage; the first hit inflicts freeze, and the second hit inflicts chill. Freeze prevents the enemy from taking any action, while chill reduces the movement speed of affected targets by 50%.

After casting Mystic Ice, we also gain a passive effect that halves the cost of our next fire-based skill. His "Aetherial Burst" is quite unique, as it transforms into different effects based on the attribute of the last magic he cast. For example, if the last was a basic attack, it will deal non-elemental magic damage to enemies, then enhance himself, increasing the damage of his basic attacks. If it follows an ice spell, it increases movement speed, and if it follows a thunder spell, it resets its cooldown.

The Black Mage in Final Fantasy 14 Crystal World not only has high burst magic damage but also a variety of elemental magic skills that can be used according to the battle situation. Coupled with its mysterious and unpredictable charm, it stands out among many classes. Those who want to play a ranged damage dealer should definitely choose him in the game.
