Astromancer
- Tier 3 Long-Range Spellcaster.
Meteor: Deal damage to an area. Has large cast time, a long range, and deals a large amount of damage.
Solar Flare: Deal damage to an area in the shape of a wall relative to the caster. Cannot target diagonals. Also has high damage, large range, and long cast time.
Lock-On: Choose another spell. The spell will follow the target unit rather than his current location.

Craft the Astromancer's Staff to unlock the Job (Very Late-Game).

Developer Notes
- Why am I introducing new jobs? Because its fun and I held off on it for year while redoing the story mode.
- I'm looking to add more abilities to some of the classes even if those abilities are similar to ones that already exist. The game is at the point where two jobs can share a similar ability and still be different enough.
