[dev1216] Weapon Skill Adjustments

[Arbalest]

BLU magic also needs looking into, since the WS update I find myself using physical BLU magic less and less and magical BLU magic has never been good. The only spells I ever seem to use anymore are buffs and ones to set traits.
Magical BLU magic has it particularly bad the gap in balance seems to be like

Weapons skills > physical blue magic >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> magical blue magic

I agree completely. It takes a whole lot of prep, time, and care with your gear to make magical BLU worthwhile to use.. and even then, you still have to nuke pretty much in melee range. The cast times are long, the MP cost is pretty huge, and you usually don't see a whole lot of damage. They REALLY need to look at physical spells too.. make them almost on par with most WSs, or at least make them do some notable damage against larger enemies.

Aside from that, Sword WSs didn't see that many changes at all.. and really fell behind every other DD with the adjustments.

I feel they are going to ignore us on this request. There's like no JP blu community so it's rather neglected by the dev team.
