Blue Mage - from Thaumaturge

Notes:

While no stance is active, you cannot use any abilities, spells, or weaponskills. Whenever you enter a stance, a new action bar for that stance is set as active. When no stance is active, your character glows black, and each stance being active makes your character glow a different color ( Learning – blue, brutal – red, arcane – white, mending – green, support - yellow ). The glow is slight, so that it doesn’t get in the way of your character’s appearance. Blue mage armor/weapons generally increase all stats equally.

You know you can edit everything into your original post and not kill your posting limitations for the day. The 1000 character limit only applies to the starting post. After than you can edit everything else into the same post.

Dat mass of posts, rather than editting.

All of the skills you listed as "Passive" i dont see happening at all. All passive abilities you find under "Traits" on the action list, if those effects were to be present in-game they would be in the way of an activatable buff like defiance or shield/sword oath.

also with Blue Mage i dont think they would implement learning as a stance in the last live letter Yoshi-P said summoners wouldnt be getting a leviathan-egi because it wouldnt be fair to give them an extra ability, would mean they would have to do the same for all other classes, i'd imagine you would learn key BLM abilities during class quests as the "Learning" goes like Bad Breath from a learning encounter with a Morbol or Mighty Guard from an Iron Giant or Adamantoise etc depending on how they want BLM to play out

either way i'm really excited and looking forward to any and all new classes released in the future

While Samurai from lancer sounds interesting, it's just another flavor of DD and so far they seem to be avoiding doubling up on Jobs over a single class. Mind you, this is based on the only class with two Jobs presently available with Scholar and Summoner representing the two different caster persuasions. The Job I'd be more inclined to see on lancer would be a tank Job given DD is already well represented in Dragoon.

Why not new classes for new jobs?

Oh dear god... please stop the spam...
One thing is to want to get your post at the top of the forums... and another is to constantly spam the forums with a design full of flaws for some classes.

If you want to share, your view on the classes thats fine, but please edit your main top post to incluide all the information, and avoid spaming your own post...
