Especially the older Video games that follow the trends of  Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, or Persona.The Magic First, Magic+Weapon Combiner Gish would be someone combining swinging a sword and using "arcane" magic in one turn but making the magic the powerful and important part. The only real popular inspiration for it would be JRPGs where a warrior looking character uses their weapon more like a spell focus than a deadly instrument. You shoot fire out your sword or ice out your gun during a single animation.The Weapon First, Magic+Weapon Combiner Gish would inspired by anime/manga and 4e Swordmages. The classic "Teleport to the enemy then attack the foe".This is a big point because "Arcane Magic" and "Weapon based Combat" have different capabilities in most RPGs. Few TTRPGs let you teleport, create illusions, drain life, mind control, or transform with martial arts.</blockquote>
