All they need to do is remove the restrictions on party content and yes, make it so death isn't usable on certain bosses.
I don't see the issue there - if you cast Death on certain bosses in other FF games, they would be immune. Just make them immune.
The combat in this game is not fun enough for the experience of leveling BLU and using it in the content available to it to actually be fun. The fun from the combat in this game comes from the mechanics of playing in relevant party content. It's an MMO, not a single player game.

"If an unprepared Blue Mage asks to join a party they'll be kicked." ... So? If you don't have high enough iLvl, you also need to get kicked. If you are a bad player and can't get a grip of the mechanics, you can get kicked. Players can be unprepared in a bunch of different ways, why should an unprepared Blue Mage be any different?

Why is the XIV dev team so afraid to let the players take some responsibility for themselves in this instance when it's expected of us elsewhere? If a player tries to do content without preparation, that's on them, let it be that way. We don't need to be coddled with these restrictions that make it totally impossible for us to do this content. What you've basically done with BLU is make a little kiddie playpen for us to go into that we can't come out of unless we change to something else.

By putting these restrictions on place all you do is harm the fun that players with an ounce of self responsibility would have when wanting to play BLU in endgame party content. It's just ridiculous, I'm sorry. We don't need to be babied and we don't need our hands held like this. This is the first time I've been this upset with the dev team in my 4 years of playing. I'm extremely disappointed and disheartened. The amount of work being put into BLU is crazy for it to be restricted like this, should've just been a balanced job and the job quests require you to learn skills from monsters instead of this pick and choose thing if you're just going to lock them out of so much content. Or, ideally, you let BLUs pick and choose like you are and just balance the skills.

I hope there's enough of an outcry on this for the devs to remove the restrictions they're putting on BLU and give the players the credit they deserve to take care of themselves when it comes to content. This couldn't be anymore disappointing as it stands right now. =(
