So if it isn't designed for the game then who does it cater to? Collectors? By that logic RDM, NIN, DRK and BRD shouldn't be in the game but they designed them into a proper setting where they fulfill their own roles in how they fit in an MMO, you look at BLU and it's all gimmicks that they could redesign but won't. It's not like other jobs because the keyword here is they didn't design it at all without any thinking or the impacts it would have on the actual game, yes it's fun right now because it's new but I played literally for 2 hours casually and i'm lvl 40 with 24 spells.

It's literally a collectathon class that isn't really anything new then playing FSH but instead of catching fish you get spells which most of them are pretty underpowered I solo'd Haukke Manor normal at lvl 32 and it wasn't fun or as interesting as playing an actual class. It was spam 1000 needles, White Wind, Bad Breath, rinse and repeat that's literally your rotation until you get the "premium" level 50 skills that have bad drop rates, still aren't as strong as other actual skills in game they're literally gonna be Carnival fodder where you use lightning spells on a dropsy target, nothing more nothing less.

And it's a shame too because the fun part is leveling but you reach it so fast without even thinking about it then you realize that the rest of the skills come from lvl 50 dungeons and EX trials that you have to hope RNG co-operates and that people will spam run it till you get it. BLU was a lost opportunity, it was fun but now that people are reaching lvl 50 very rapidly the effect is starting to kick in that people want more and wish it was more than just a collectathon mage and they could do more, don't get me wrong I'm having fun leveling but once that's over the fun is gonna die down for me after learning those abilities on the over world.
