Minwu (Final Fantasy II)
With the exception of Lightning’s Medic Paradigm, Dissidia Final Fantasy doesn’t have any healing magic in it. Up until now, that’s been fine. However, now that Dissidia Final Fantasy Arcade’s adding three on three combat, it’s the perfect time to inclue Final Fantasy II‘s white mage, Minwu.
Besides being the only male healer in the series, Minwu spent most of Final Fantasy II working as the right-hand to the leaders of the Wild Rose Rebellion. As such, it’s easy to imagine that he could become Cosmos’ adviser in the plot, working on aiding the heroes in their quest to stop Chaos while also defending Cosmos from harm.
As a White Mage, Minwu could be the only character in the game who could target his allies in three on three battles and cast supportive magic like Protect and Regen. Much like Shantotto, he would have to rely on magic spells like fire, ice, and lightning to do damage since he isn’t skilled with weapons. Minwu’s EX Burst should definitely be Final Fantasy II‘s version of the Ultima spell. Minwu was instrumental in unlocking the spell and while it did kill him, he could learn it himself in the Soul of Rebirth bonus chapter.
