Thief with Red Mage sub possibility?

[Kalethis]

I've been trying to do a lot of reading up on the game lately, and I have decided that I want to play a Thief. The question that I have been pondering over and over in my head though, is what sub to play. I've thought about Thief/Ninja quite a bit, but I like to be unique at the same time. I'm more than likely going to try a Thief/Red Mage combo, but I'm curious if anyone else out there is or has tried this. Also I'm curious on input from others on possible pros and cons. Thanks in advance.

Well I personally wouldn't do any Mage type sub job for a couple of reasons. One you would never be able to use your TP becuase you are resting for MP. Two you would get more Mage type stats when it is your sub when you could get more HP from say Monk. Oh and you can't pick a expansion job till your level 30 ^^ (Ninja).:sweat:

The good thing of thf I like is we can choose a bunch of subs.

You can go for /mnk /war /nin /sam depending on what your PT needs.

I don't like the fact that other fighter jobs are bound to /war pretty much 90% of the time.

Its kinda tough though to up all those job to be your sub, but I feel another way.

I can be many things,.. if today I feel I wanna swing, I /nin.

If my PT really need an emergency taunter, I can /war.

If I am going to fight skeleton, I /mnk (rangeki rocks~).

If I feel like I need to dish out extreamly high dmg, /sam can help me do fuidama dancing edge every fight ^.^
