Why was a wizard class allowed to equip a sword?
Most of his spells come from a fire ring. I think it's fair that he gets a secondary weapon.
It's like Moonlight Greatsword, most of the damage is through magic-scaling specials.
>>198571554He respecced.
>>198571554Spell/sword build bud
>>198571554He has 2 levels in fighter
>>198571554Well Aragorn was one of the warriors of the party and he was also the dedicated healer. He upgraded later into a legendary Healer King which is extremely rare
>>198571554Because not all fantasy follows D&D rules, you absolute faggot. Get back to /tg/.
>>198571554because the whole concept of "classes" that strangles the fantasy genre today is D&D crap.
>>198571554He was a red mage.
>>198571554Mages can equip one-handed swords and daggers.
look now he's a little frog guy haha
>>198571554mage warrior
Gandalf doesn't really use practical magic so a sword is more useful. Most gandalf ever did was blind some guys and throw an old man around.
>>198571554He took a feat to use martial weapons, and was under a permanent Divine Power buff (which is granted and sustained by his deity).
>>198571554>op never played dark souls
>>198571902Based
>>198572440I wish souls games let you play like gandalf. Or any game. I just want one with an actual 7 foot tall fuck off staff instead of gay ass baby staves.
>>198571554He paid his taxes
>>198571554He has a sword because he can’t cast any spells besides sending a shockwave through rocks to make cliffs crumble and lighting pinecones on fire and shining a bright headlight highbeams. If he didn’t have that sword he would get killed he needs it.
>>198571554
>>198573235Gandalf not only can cast a shield bubble around himself, but he can summon lighting to enhance his weapons. He's a battle mage. However, how most powerful skills use up his mana and have long cooldowns.
>>198573285Right I forgot the magic bubble and absorbing lightning.
>>198571554>>198573285So it’s safe to say Dumbledoom would disco on this old gray fart’s corpse.
>>198571554Gandalf is a battle mage. Aragorn is a spellsword, the inverse of a battle mage.
>>198573496Aragorn is a ranger, you stupid douche, he never uses magic at all ever.
>>198571554>unnamedHis name is Gandalf, and Gandalf means... him!
>>198573256Of Tir ná nÓg?
>>198571554>Why was a wizard class allowed to equip a sword?He's not Wizard class. He's Wizard race.
>>198573599listen here you piece of shit, I'm a tolkien expert, Aragorn uses a magic sword made of elvish trickery you retarded faggot
>>198573422gandalf the fool was handicapped by god himself so sauron wouldn't get BTFO in one day god wanted a good show gandalf with his limiter off would be god-like
>>198573994You actually think spellsword just means someone with a magic sword? Fuck, dude, why are you even here? Go watch a basketball game or have sex with a lady or something.
>>198573994having an elvish blade has fuckall with using magic
We need more Nightblade fiction
>>198572440> Implying Faggotsouls is worth playinglol. Good one, Slopboy.
>>198572440I just played dark souls 2 for a few hours after playing dragons dogma. Worst shit I ever played. Is dark souls 3 better or should I just replay dragons dogma?
>>198572394He enchanted pinecones into incendiary grenades in The Hobbit. That's pretty practical
>>198573599He's a Numenor. His very existence is magic.
he's OP as fuck in the card game too
its not following your faggot dungeon and dragon rules
In the book, the Istari are also physical gigachads despite their old man-like appearance. There's one time where Tolkien just casually describes Gandalf vaulting onto Shadowfax's back -- the mental imagery of this was hilarious to me. But he carried Glamdring for a reason. He was strong, the Balrog fight was meant to show a lot of that strength and when he returns, it's implied his power is much greater.
>>198571554>He never heard of warlock or multi-classing
>>198571554Because is a magic sword, duh..
>>198571554its just a stat stick
>>198577438Well he’s an angel so that makes sense.
Reminder that you don't need any of the damage spells past FIR2 and that your time is better spent casting FAST, SABR, and CUR3.Black Mage need not apply.>~800 damage per cast of NUKEI'll stick with swinging every turn for >1000 damage on a hasted, tempered up RM.
>>198578485how can i unread this
>>198578520Sorry. I found out that the iconic black mage isn't needed in Final Fantasy 1 and I have to tell everyone about optimization in a game that doesn't require perfection at all.
>>198573256Yeah and you can dual wield staff and sword with dll hook iirc or maybe not
>>198578485:)
>>198578485>>198578577based turboautist
>>198571554 classes are a social construct
>>198571554Because Wizards are OP and get way more spec points than anyone else.
>>198576722Ds2 is the worst soulsbloodsekiroring type game from has made. Try any of the others
>>198571554Gandalf is either a cleric or a bard.
>>198571554it's a kino combination
>>198571554Battlemages are a thing
>>198571554because he is a demigod cleric
>>198573599except when he heals people with magic
>poopsock >follow katana dual-wielding kensai/mage dual class guide meticulously>gimpy character for first 60% of the game >gay overpowered cheese build when it finally kicks in >have to use character editor to mod my sprite to wizard robes so i don't look like a gay man in brown spandex>regret cheesing multiple rings of gaxx >regret cheesing kangaxx>have no fun whatsoeverWhy did I do it? Why did I allow this to happen to me?
>>198571554Fighter/Wizard
