The concept is that you acquire blue magic spells via learning and then you can change battle strategies by picking and choosing spells within the blue magic spell points and set limitations. If you were able to change spells freely, the whole battle strategy aspect would be lost, so we have no plans to remove/reduce the penalty.Reduce or get rid of the penalty incurred after setting blue magic spells.

The thing I want to add to what Pro is saying is that having an awareness of limitations doesn't mean we're complacent.
There's a reason why so many Blue Mage's have so much skill. It's because the job makes you work for it. Just because we can't be the best for every role, doesn't mean we don't use them. It just means you've gotta be smart with it.
The only job I play, and only job I will ever play is Blue Mage. There's never been a situation where I've felt there's not a place for me. Voidwatch was close. Close. But you just find a way around and mix it up.(0)

The other side of that coin is the people who think Mirage Charuqs are cool to fulltime. I'm really not sure BLUs have a higher average skill/competency level than any other job.

BLU is a job that is so gear intensive to effectively be as efficient as possible, I try to reserve judgement on most BLU's until I see them in action. Even a pink BLU has surprised me from time to time. Some skilled BLU's are clueless on how to gear properly, which is fine/understandable as not everyone can get on forums or perhaps know any good BLU's. It's the clueless [A] BLU's who have absolutely no understanding about the job then complain in my LS with their 95 BLU on where to learn certain level 40, 50, 60, etc. spells and how big a pain it is to learn spells vs. buying them that I have 0 tolerance for and have been known to call them out, don't fuck up my job with your inept and laziness, find a job you can buy your spells and gtfo.

Anyway, I think we also need more spell slot on top of more set points.
My default spell set is at 58/60 set points with 20/20 slots filled.(0)

....always exceptions. Skill doesn't always represent the best gear. Sorry if that doesn't fit in your little box.

Not having the best gear != not knowing how to gear. If I see someone running around in magic accuracy magian swords, a life belt, and 5/5 empyrean armor then I'm sorry, they are not a skilled BLU.

They aren't skillful if they don't know how to gear properly. Sorry.

For the most part I agree, but there are rare exceptions.

Yeah.. but we've had those types of BLUs for the past 5 years. There's just more of them now.The other side of that coin is the people who think Mirage Charuqs are cool to fulltime. I'm really not sure BLUs have a higher average skill/competency level than any other job.
