white mage

I saw she is weak to holy damage so I tried with a white mage. I have 2 kaelirra's tears for this fight + the belt that revives me the first time I die. My spells of choice are celestial smite and jade fire, buffed by conjurer concoction and righteous fury I can take out a good chunk of her...

I've been playing a black mage build until recently and decided to try a white mage build. Any suggestions? I'm trying to go for more of a battle healer or a "salamander warrior" build though I'm not sure what salamander means (started playing only a while ago and saw this term in some suggestions).

They can't be changed right? Been agonizing over which one to use on my White Mage...

So I'm building my character as a paladin-esque white mage. Thought about starting out as white mage for the histories, mostly acolyte, and getting all the skills then swapping to warrior, mostly for the veteran class perk. I tried this out at one point and went through the centaur village...
