BLU DPS

[Linx0r]

I have done, ad nauseum.

A blue mage is iconic for learning it\\'s skills from enemies, typically by getting hit.

Getting hit as a job mechanic can only work for a tank.
Not to mention the classic blue magic spell set is already suitable for a tank.
Damage mitigation and weak gimmicky heals, debuffing utility and a few potent AoE damaging spells.
It already looks like a DRK/PLD skill set.

I highly doubt that the BLU is going to learn new spells on the fly while tanking a fight .....these would best be suited to learning via lvl quest and fighting/getting hit by a monster then. Saying that, BLU can totally be DPS. If it's a tank, are we learning new skills from every monster that we get hit by? It could work either way. There are enough threads in the Tank side on this subject....I was hoping that people had more DPS information and thoughts to contribute.
