    Unless they updated arciela recently, that isn't true. Koru has every spell that arciela has and more, such as distract and phalanx 2. Arciela also can't buff other players/trusts like koru can, and spends a lot of her time in JA delay from spamming bellatrix of shadow (lets her cast enfeebles and her amnesia TP move) and bellatrix of light (allows enhancing magic and her other 2 TP moves). And no, those stances don't change her auto-attack element or damage, it was always non-elemental as far as I could tell.

    The only disadvantage koru has that I can see is that he often won't refresh blu for some reason. I think it might depend on subjob, as I've had other peoples koru refresh me as blu/rdm, and I've seen him refresh stuff like pup/mage or drg/mage. If it is indeed subjob dependent, I wonder if he would refresh blu/run?

    Neither should Koru... all my jobs are capped but I thought trusts gained spells as same lvl as players

    Depends on what you are doing. At times Koru's greater amount of casting everywhere is a disadvantage. I find that even with the ja usagage (would hardly call it spamming) she still does a better job of keeping me and herself buffed than Koru when doing xp lvl stuff. That was really my main gripe. Koru would spend all his time casting and attempting lower priority stuff and missed the important part of hasting me

    I picked up Blue again this weekend to duo with another blue, and we found this incredibly annoying. Koru would cast refresh on all the trusts with MP including Joachim, but would not refresh either of us. I changed my subjob to /rdm, and still no refresh. We're working on adoulin missions so hopefully Arciela will work.

    Also, I used Ultima and Joachim, trying to get refresh, and unless I replaced Quitada with D. Shantoto so that all of our party had MP, neither bard would ballad. I kept switching up the setup trying to get ballad consistently.

    I can understand the bard issue being more difficult to fix because I can see Blue wanting haste and ballad more situationally but I don't understand why an obvious bug with Koru Moru been fixed yet. Refreshing the bard trust, but not an actual blue player? That seems ridiculous.
