SCH: Blizzard at level 12 for the same reason, Miasma 2 at level 46 and Shadow Flare at level 50. Also arguably Bane at level 30.
Blizzard II is only effective as a dps skill combined with umbral ice and even with it the damage is still awful. While scholars and white mages can get it, the way it's meant to be used completely changes and it's better used for the bind effect and being a fast cast aoe. IMO, the only use i've found for blizzard II was to spread adds on brayflox hm last boss (bombs) and the tanks on keeper of the lake 1st boss. Sch wise, mainly those at level 12, sacrificing cleric/protect for blizzard II is a terrible idea.
