BLU for Duty Finder and Raids! Show your support!

[Arkdra]

The problem with the way the are implimenting it tho is that the only thing you can do on it is old content. It's basically, "I've capped my tomes and don't want to craft, ex primals, or savage raid, lets go run old content on a job I have to make parties to do anything with." And sure there is the Masked Carnival but what's the point of that once you've done all the missions? BLU will just sit there till they decide to update it. And if they add other limited jobs they will probably leapfrog which job they level up at a time. It's just a horrible way to do a job instead of just making it a regular job. You don't need 100+ abilities when most of those will be replaced by stronger versions or be very niche skills. It basically just drives me insane thinking about limited jobs as a whole. UGH lol.

Every job you don't play regularly is essentially just as wasted on a personal level. Like I get being mad you can't raid with it if that's what you want to do, but the majority of people aren't (in the same sense that the majority of people aren't going to be raiding on most of the jobs available to them) and this isn't some huge affront for them. Having some silly filler grind to kill time between now and june is actually pretty smart on SE's part considering we are going to be in a 6 month content gap with nothing but more story and the final eureka zone between the 8th and Shadowbringer's release.

Edit: Like, I've got everything at 70 but I only did it for something to do. If I only leveled the things I actually use regularly, I would have drg 50, nin 60, sam rdm and war 70 and everything else not a doh/l at 1. And drg and nin only make this list because Sam wasn't around to begin with.

I like to change around the job I'm playing often. Only the DPS jobs but still I'll hope on BLM, SMN, even MCH every now and then.

I mean, that's basically any content isn't it....? Once you get all of your classes to 60, Palace of the Dead will just sit there and rot. Once you get all of the rewards you want from the golden saucer, it'll just sit there until they add more rewards. Once you get your chocobo to max level, how often do you bring it out to fight with you? Any dungeon has it's run and then it just sits there. Many people level all classes but never use them after leveling them.

BLU will have content added to it as time progresses. More Masked Carnival stuff, more abilities, potentially other content, too. And personally sometimes I need to revisit old dungeons for certain drops and I have a tendency to 2 man it with my friend. In those kind of situations, I feel like using BLU would be a lot of fun and make it less of a pain in the arse.

How would running a dungeon with lvl 50 Blu be less tedious than unsyncing it with a lvl 70?

More fun. It's exciting to screw around with the OP abilities. A chance to use a class I usually dont/cant use.

I hope for your and everyone else's sake they have more op spells than what was shown in the live letter, cause even bad breath looked weak.

Bad Breath actually looks like a really strong defensive skill. It is an aoe that inflicts Paralyze, Slow and Damage Down for 15 seconds. The 40% Heavy also potentially makes kiting a viable strategy should the damage still prove to be overwhelming.

Yoshida has mentioned (in some media interviews in Japan) doing things like killing a dungeon boss with Doom, where it just dies after a countdown.

I don't think you have a thing to worry about when it comes to no OP spells/abilities.

Level 5 death has been explicitly discussed. Last time they spoke about it, it's going to be able to kill, "Dungeon Midbosses." Which, with translation who knows what that really means but betting money would be on it working on the bosses that aren't final.
