Because power leveling is a thing.

Built-in exp buff, FC buffs, food, armory bonus, maybe a Road to 60? Mentor bonus if you're partied with one. I can see how easy that would be... to the point it makes me again wonder why they even made you level it in the first place. Most of it is locked behind learning the skills anyway.

ran around for30 mins and I'm 39. I'll finish up the rest when I get home from work

I hear people have Blu at 50 within an hour...how is that even possible?
It's not even possible o do wwith normal Dow/M and they have level roulette to speed It along.
is the Level up requirement and xp gains from monster kills nerfed/boosted so much that it only takes a few kills to level up?
If so that seems....pointless.

having it doable in an hour is just going to make it feel like an "event" piece.
Log in->do event to 50-> back to weekly requirements when done...never giving it a 2nd look till the cap is increased.

Hopefull im wrong, I'm at work so haven't had the chance to log in today and check it out.

I know some people who seem to think I shouldn't be allowed to have/voice an opinion before playing BLU.
Mostly they just seem to want me to enjoy it for what it is, but I honestly don't see the point. We already know it has no endgame.

It would be like saying that I don't know the joy of having a car before I own one.. and then having me buy a car that doesn't drive - doesn't work - won't go anywhere. Yay, I have a car, I can sit in it... but it won't move.
Yay, I leveled BLU, ...but now I can't do content with it. What's the point?
Why would I go level it, risk liking it, and then have more disappointment in not being able to play it normally - raiding, endgame.

I beg SE to never add a limited job again, and find a way to implement this to work as any other job would. The player base has some excellent suggestions already. I would love for SE to look into more options.

People have BLU at 50, but it'll take much longer to obtain all the spells.

We already know it has no endgame.

By that definition, Gathering has no endgame, Crafting has no endgame, PvP has no endgame, Gold Saucer has no endgame, Sightseeig has no endgame, Hunts has no endgame, Grand Companies have no endgame...

[BillyKaplan]

Gathering has no endgame, Crafting has no endgame

That's not quite true. Their end-game is the latest tier of their respected fields, which often requires as much gear investment as Savage raiding.

Grand Companies have no endgame...

That's arguably a problem more so than something to use as support to your argument. Though I do concede that BLU's endgame is the Masked Carnivale. That much was obvious from the get-go. Now, how long would this end-game last (in comparison with other 'endgames' when a new tier comes out) remains to be seen.

[Reynhart]

You still have the process of gaining Captain Rank, which is completely unrelated to leveling or gear, so it's a "kind" of endgame. For me, endgame is simply a thing that needs investment after the whole leveling process. Wether this investement is skill, randomness, steady progress or money doesn't negate its purpose.

Though I do concede that BLU's endgame is the Masked Carnivale.

Exactly. BLU simply has its own endgame, and, from my point of view, I'm more interested in a new concept of endgame than simply having a new job to do the same things I could do with every other job.
