Best job in the game!

Hello! Blue Mage forever!

[Draylo]

Also now that I have a post here, should fix a few BLU spells. Bad Breath and 1000 needles are iconic spells for BLU through the series and they are terrible in this game. Huge MP cost is unwarranted and should be lessened drastically.

Every time it is around Lightsday I die a little on the inside.

I am looking at you 1000 Needles, you know exactly why.

[Dais]

Agreed, BLU is very powerful. Job balance is probably better than it has ever been in the game but blu is just so much more fun.
Also, 1000 needles is probably our worst individual spell.

[Draylo]

I agree, I honestly don't have many problems with BLU in its current state. I love it, I think the only recommendation outside of adjusting a few current spells(1k needles, bad breath) is introducing more buff spells (such as mighty guard) and make our cures able to target outside party.

[Ezrin]

Yeah, BLU needs a protect/shell spell and Mighty Guard would be perfect. Another thing I think should be changed is the timer on setting blue magic spells.

[Lukielucas]

I totally agree with the Protect/Shell form of spells.. I'm also wondering why BLU never had access to Re-Raise cos since BLU meant to be a versatile job....

Funny enough talking about 1000 needles.... had to try and proc it earlier in abyssea and man it was annoying

[Draylo]

I don't think any mobs in the game use an actual ability that gives reraise. The only mobs are the corpselight in Tahrongi Abyssea and Aern type mobs, but those are more traits I would think and not actual abilities they use.

I keep hoping for TP Drainkiss, since it's still in the DATs.

Also, they should give us something like Crystal Shield (Protect) or Bubble Curtain (Shell). Shinryu already has Mighty Guard and it's way too good to give to BLU without making it useless (a novelty legacy spell like 1000 Needles and Bad Breath). Or Scissor Guard (+100% defense instead of the +50% from Cocoon - probably with an obscenely high MP cost and/or recast, though). More buffs or debuffs would definitely be welcome since I doubt we'll get anything to top the DD spells we've got now. A real f'ing Paralyze spell would be great, especially one with a proc rate as good as EVERY MONSTER WITH A PARALYZE ABILITY EVER. And god I can't wait for more set points at 91.

On topic: if not the best job, definitely one of the more fun ones to play.
