BLU dungeon spell RNG

Welp, ran through Haukke Manor 12 times, every time getting Manor Sentry to use Level 5 Petrify in both fights.

Guess RNG is borked as usual for anything dungeon related that's not guaranteed. Shoulda seen this coming. Can't wait till I see the travesty of EX Primals

Btw is it the first encounter of Manor Sentry that matters, second or both?

You are running Haukke Manor (Hard) right? If so then it's just RNG saying no I'm afraid.

It is the sole reason why they are not willing to put in Blue Mage.
It is always a job relies on RNG in console version or in FF11, please dont complains

But there can be more reasonable RNG.

And I'm running Haukke Manor NM, like it says in the Spellbook

Me + friend got it from Lady Amandine fight didn't use it till <20% health

And also a lot of Blue Magic isn't RNG to obtain (Quistis, Strago, Quina, Kimahri etc)

I got it from the boss add, personally. Never saw the first add drop it in four attempts.

In the final boss, make sure to kill every add before the Manor Sentry, get this one to 20% or less, and then wait for the spell to be casted. If you don't learn it, use Self Destruct away from the boss or let it kill you. This way you will have another chance to see the Manor Sentry without having to run the whole dungeon again.

Lol 15 times only? Are you kidding me about bad rng you obviously never played XI where Blu spells would take upwards to over 100 kills to learn.

Quistis Card game/RNG drops, Strago/Quina/Kimahri all needed specific monsters within RNG encounters so yes Blue always has had RNG with it not always tied directly to learning the ability but sometimes encountering said monster so with ffxiv being an mmo only rng they can choose is actually learning it as monsters are stationary

RNG is RNG, there is no such thing as "reasonable" RNG.
RNG will not called a RNG if it is controlled by a set of variables

having the same problem with glower. Like 12 kills in now
you'd think a quest required one would be a little less harsh than like primals

You can self destruct after killing the Sentry and not learning it.

Keep in mind that the main reason behind giving certain spells a low chance of being learned is to slow down progression. There isn't much for Blue Mage to do after collecting all of its spells. If Blue Mage had access to more content, the process of learning spells wouldn't have to be so slow.
