Want to find out more about the upcoming Sage class in Final Fantasy 14? The FFXIV Endwalker expansion is out later this year, adding new dungeons, raids, gear, and systems. Alongside the many new features, we're getting a new class - the Sage job. First introduced in Final Fantasy III and seen again in Final Fantasy Tactics, players have been long anticipating the arrival of the Sage class.
The Sage job in FFXIV is a vastly different take on the job we've seen in previous games; instead of using powerful white and black magic or inflicting status hindering attacks, the Sage is a barrier healer, similar to the Scholar. This is the fourth healer to be added to Final Fantasy 14, to sit alongside the White Mage, Scholar, and Astrologian.
While there isn't much out there about the Sage class, we do know it's one of two new jobs arriving when the Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker release date rolls around, alongside the newly announced Reaper class. So, let's take a look at what we currently know about the Sage, the prerequisites to unlock the class, and how the Sage performs in combat.
