Don't like Blue Mage? Here is how to convince SE to change it...

[Fyce]

So now instead of people getting excited that their favorite up and coming FF job getting implemented in the game, they now have to hold their breath and hope they're not the "lucky" job that gets limited.

There's basically three options for Jobs coming after 4.5:
1. Job getting implemented and shoehorned to fit the mold of Normal Jobs.
2. Job getting implemented with a unique system/gimmick so special that it has to be a Limited Job.
3. Job not getting implemented.

(If you want a 4th option, which would be getting the positives from 1 and 2, you basically have to change the mold itself. Which is not a light thing at all. And at this point you'd probably be better off asking for Final Fantasy XIV-2.)

My point was to say that if option 2 wasn't created, Blue Mage (and every possible future Limited Jobs) could've very well ended up in option 3. I'm not talking about "hoping your job won't be implemented as a limited job", I'm talking about "hoping your job will be implemented at all".

Lots of people are saying that BLU could've existed as a "Normal Job" instead of a "Limited Job". I'm just saying that it could've also very well be nothing at all.

Tl;Dr: Sometimes you have to pick the lesser of two evils.
