A question for the BLU peeps

[Reynhart]

Semantically it doesn't have anything to do with your character level, you are still gated by your level from actually getting the spells.

So you're just going to ignore every proof like "Quina can learn any spell at level 1", "Khimari can Lancet any target without ever moving on the sphere grid", "Quistis can use any dropped item at her starting level", "A lvl0 Blue Mage could use any spell learn by someone else in FFV" ?

Which is - GASP! - no different from acquiring skills through exp grinding

Things that BLU precisely won't have to do. You will be able to learn Bad Breath from seeing a Morbol attacking someone else in your party. It means you could basically be joined by a lvl70 punching bag just to survive. The only thing that will be tied to any level is the probability of learning a move, and it's not even your level, but the level of your target. The few exceptions will be spells that requires you going into an instance, and even then it will likely be for learning and not for using.
