I wonder how many people who swore blue magic had to work exactly like enemy skills (or it wouldn't feel like BLU) will be preemptively dropping the job.
Bad Breath: FFXIV Morbol
- Inflicts Slow, Heavy, Silence, Paralysis, Poison, Blindness, HP Penalty, and Damage Down on target.

Bad Breath: Blue Mage
- Inflicts various status debuffs on enemies: Poison, 10% Damage Dealt Down, 40% Heavy, Slow, Darkness and Paralysis

Poison DoT Potency: 10
Effect time: 15 seconds.
Additional Effect: Silence. Silence effect: 1 second

Not seeing how they're "virtually nothing alike".
