New Class Speculations

BLU as a healer makes no sense, like literally none. Almost all Blue Magic spells are offensive in every game, off the top of my head I can recall like three healing spells they commonly learn ever and tens of damage spells. If anything RDM makes more sense as a healer as that was it's common role in FFXI, but even that's a huge stretch.

Odds are we just don't get a healer this expac unless they bench BLU for DNC or something. Which I doubt will happen as they've yet to hint at DNC in any capacity and DNC isn't typically a dedicated healer either.

I know it doesn't but it's the only Job that came to my mind having healing and support spells and Yoshi said he would like to do it.

I don't know about the Dancer class, i don't remember playing a FF game that had it so can't comment on it.

I don't recall Yoshi EVER saying he wanted BLU to be a healer. I only remember him mentioning the job would be very difficult to implement and he mused on the idea of it being a solo play only thing. Never anything on it being support or a healer, do you have a source?

Also as I said, RDM has a plethora of healing and support magic available, but still I see that being a DPS too.

I mean he would like to do it the Blue Mage not it as a healer lol.
