Ah, okay, that's reasonable enough. I get what you mean now, and I can see where you're coming from, but that's kinda not the argument I was trying to put across - but thanks for being honest and straightforward, honestly.

Where I was coming from was a point of "people here seem to be either on the 'let BLU be a class like the rest' and 'BLU needs to be its own thing' side of the coin, and I'm on the latter because DF will suffer."

Almost every argument I've seen arguing for BLU in DF tend to scream "restriction" above all else, and I guess I took your comment to be both on the side of BLU and more restrictions which, as I said, would have been contradictory given my past experiences with other pro-BLUs.

In hindsight, I agree that required skills for dungeons would be a good idea, and would go someway to preventing bads from crapping up DF. But I guarantee people would STILL complain.

Personally speaking, I am absolutely all about the new BLU, because it's about time we had something that wasn't just "another caster". This is a whole new thing, like crafting and gathering is to combat. It could lead to a whole slew of new content, like Beastmaster, Puppermaster, and more besides. Hell, I'd even accept having BLU be able to join ANY AND EVERY duty once 100%'d.

But as it stands, given the very two different sides of the BLU coin, and given the playerbase, it is as it needs to be.

But again, thanks for the feedback, and appreciate it. Apologies also for being a bit of a dick. I see you're a fellow Cerberite, so if you see me running around Limsa pretending to be Willy Wonka and offering tours of my chocolate factory, consider your tour a free one. :3
