Medic (job)

Medic , abbreviated as MED, is a role in the Final Fantasy series associated with the Command Synergy Battle system and based on the White Mage job class. Its main use is to restore HP and remove status effects.
==Appearances==
===Final Fantasy XIII===
Medics maintain the party's performance by healing HP, recovering knocked out characters, and removing status ailments. Hope and Vanille specialize as Medics, with Vanille learning spells at a quicker rate than Hope, though Hope benefits from his Magic being naturally higher.
Lightning learns Raise, while her fast casting speed and high Magic compensate for her lacking Curasa. Snow learns Curasa and has a slightly faster casting speed than Lightning, but does not learn Raise. Fang's skillset in the Medic role mirrors Lightning's, but she is more limited due to her low Magic. Sazh mirrors Snow, albeit with a slower casting animation.
Cid Raines can use a Recovery Shift when fought as a boss, where he will use Cure and Esuna and, as his health dwindles, Curasa.
====Final Fantasy XIII-2====
Medic is an unlockable role for Serah and Noel. While Noel specializes in it, Serah's higher Magic allows her to heal better despite lacking Cura and Curaja.
Two new command abilities are available to the recruitable monster Medics: Cheer and Esunada.
Caius Ballad can assume a Healer Stance in the "Requiem of the Goddess" DLC, gaining Auto-Regen and healing and buffing spells as well casting Dispelga to remove any buff used by Lightning. In this stance, Caius does not resist anything.
===Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy===
Lightning uses the Medic role in her battle style, using spells to restore Bravery.
