Blue mage at patch 4.5

Can I take the instant wipe moves from Primals please? xD

Shiva's arrow move was instant wipe back in the way. Need to specifically ask for their ultimates!

I love how they blame player toxicity and potential exploits for why they don't let BLU into parties, when the fault lies with how they designed the class in the first place. Because they're the ones who designed it like that to be so broken.

You all have phones right?

What's the point of showing off a cool new fresh class that everyone wanted and then say they couldn't balance it but put it in the game? That's like putting Death Knights into WoW but you can't do any group play like what the actual hell SE I don't know what they were thinking i'm not surprised just disappointed.

I think people are having the blues right now.

If you went into a Savage raid and didn't have certain blue magic skills, you'd get kicked by your party!

If I went into Savage raid and didn't have decent gear, I'd be kicked from the party as well!

If a Blue Mage used Level 5 Death and instantly killed the raid boss, people would be upset!

So... don't give them game breaking abilities..?

"Here's a list of jobs you guys really, really, really want and we might give you some of them, but you won't really be able to play them because this is still an MMO and you have dungeons in the MSQ!"

No other game could ever balance blue magic in a multiplayer setting though, it's very very hard.

yes yes I know XI was hardly balanced but still

Wouldn't be possible, else they might just be a discount Blue Mage when the abilities they get from monsters aren't working the same way like the monsters'.

[ToniRomo]

If they couldn’t make it work like a real job they should have just developed something else
