About roles and balance.

[Lithera]

On a more personal point, i don't want to play blue mage which is purely DPS, a nuker red mage or a healer green mage, if they are going to half implement those jobs they better just don't implement them.

XI was the only game really where the Blue Mage served multiple roles...it's always been almost entirely a damage class. Sure they had White Wind and Mighty Guard but 90% of their spells in previous games were attacks. Make them a pure DPS in XIV and give them the ability to pick between tank and healer LBs and you have your typical BLU from games other than XI
