Done with FFXIV until RDM comes along...

Technically RDM is a power player. It should be able to fill any role given to it, without mastering much of anything. It was only really forced into a type of support role debuff role cuz that's the role XI gave it. I hardly think that fits any of XIV's rigid structure for War or magic jobs.

There's alot of potential that they can work with tho. But the devs are concerned about balance. and by balance they mean anything that will give players an edge over the gimmicks they've put in the game to push some faux difficulty factor.

Honestly BLU doesnt' even seem possible with the way that skills and spells are acquired in this game.

RDM being forced into debuffs is testimony to the fact parts of the RDM concept have to be adjusted in order for it to work in a non-console RPG. When it was a middle-of-the-road hybrid no one wanted RDM because they didn't know what to do with it. Even the debuffs didn't give RDM the "must have" factor for parties, and sadly Refresh is what gave the job value.

Blue Mage is actually very possible.

You'd fight a certain enemy every 5 level like any other job quests. Class skills can be like FFX-2's (although maybe worked into something a little more complex/comboable).

Blue Mage would work off of Dance Spheres?
