Individual "Limit Breaks"

[Alistaire]

I'm no theorycrafter, so I don't know how balanced any of these would be.

If you're no theorycrafter, why do you take the time to just throw out ridiculous ideas like these? And it's not just you, pretty much every post on this entire forum that goes in detail on someone's "dream abilities" are just way out there.

They're going to keep it simple, DPS will either do a single or AOE DPS hit, tanks will mitigate damage, healers will heal. The only problems with the current system is that BRD got classed as a healer for some reason, there's just 1 animation between MNK and DRG, when neither even uses a sword, and if you're at the point of needing a healer LB to raise, that leaves people too vulnerable for too long.

Basically your suggestions would make any content that required such LB use for its level of gear practically undoable.

SMN LB3 should be to summon the primal, the alternative of meteor for BLM. That is what I thought when SE were saying they will be making different LBs for classes.

imo one big massive ruin-ball would be cool as well

It also risks completely unbalancing all existing content. Unless these skills are sufficiently weak (and some of them seem to be) that they really shouldn't even be considered limit breaks, if every player in the party or alliance is able to fire off 1 or 2 of these apiece during a boss fight, it would dramatically change and likely break existing fights.

When someone doesn't give numbers. People complain. Someone gives numbers. People complain. Someone gives thought out numbers and can point to how they're balanced. People complain.

People just like to complain

To the OP though, I like this idea! I find the LBs fun to use! Why limit them to the dungeon?! What would be better is if my LB worked with the class I was playing! Why is my Monk pulling out a huge sword? I'd love some huge energy claws or some nice martial arts move!
