BLUE MAGE NEW CONTENT

Having been so long throughout SB, which ill be honest, wasnt my favorite expansion of the 3 to date, what skills might we be seeing from the outdoor mobs or primals like suzaku or byakku?. I'm guessing we will see similar to the last update, maybe 2 primal abilities, and two normal raid abilities on shared cd? Personally this might be big, if a job guage is involved. I know throughout this thread ive seen mega over the top abilities that might as well be learned LB, but what about other utility/mob abilities we might see?

A lot of sword skills a that would be a good instant non-primal spell just for a tank to run and get aggro, as for mitigation i think the turtle will give a defensive buff(plz a buffed rampart like skill that is instant and cast on self), reraise i see it coming from carnival, lakshmi can give a regen or an instant heal, blue mage tank could use an invul?? Or something that give more hp permanently, because devour isn't that good for a long run, a spell to learn insivibility(stealth) from a ninja would be fun, from yojimbo i can only think of summon daigoro as a pet or wakizashi to throw daggers or zanmato that would be a strong primal spell that kills even undead and machine monsters that are unaffected by death, and maybe a skill like black mage triple cast to make next casts be instant, that would be amazing for using diamondback, magic hammer, and a ress maybe?
And ress with healer need to be lower and a few spell for dps mimic

Two things:

1) Reraise could be learned from Kuribu (Lost City of Amdapor (Hard)) instead.

2) Yojimbo is not a Primal, thus, Zanmato would not be a Primal spell. Remember that not all Trials have Primals (but most Primals are faced in Trials).

I mean primal like spell that is instant and shares a recast with primal spells like jkick is from raid but shares recast with others, and yojimbo is ffx original and there he was indeed a summon(primal)

Yes, but that doesn't mean that he's a summon (or in FFXIV's case, a Primal) here.
Otherwise, bosses such as Kujata, Siren, Diabolos, Mist Dragon, etc. would also be "summons" here as well (which they definitely weren't).

As I said, not all Trials involve Primals.

In addition to my idea of blue mage only pvp i also suggest a blue mage roulette to be able to play with friends, you could make a certain requirement like have mimicry and certain other spells to be able to do that roulette and for doing this roulette several times you could get an ultros mount for example like the mentor roulette.
Also glad that they listen to my request of a glamour weapon, be it relic or the way they made those 2 lv70 weapons, also the new utility spells for healer and tank, but tank still needs instant cast mitigation so make that if you have tank mimicry those spells become instant

If it's just beacause of an achievement, just let BLU out of it and make its own PotD/HoH solo achievement and their own scoreboards. So there you have it... completing as a normal job would probably stilll be a hard relevant challenge, but also letting people who wants more options of "endgame" BLU content to be happy.

Oh with this new event for blue mages: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQqtsECymDQ i hope i can get more pupils and show how fun blue mage is, also i could give tips to the community team on which skills and content for blue mage we want, i just tought about a divination like skill, for party wide buff if you are a healer mimic for example or personal buff if using other mimic for example, and i still want the blue mage pvp with no restrictions.
