Thank you SE for...

I find it a little bit strange that they require you to complete dungeons to acquire skills yet you can't use duty finder to do so. Guess you could use party finder but it just seems an odd choice to make.

You can use party finder for as many weeks as BLU stays popular. But once the collectaholics like myself have BLU at 50 and all theirs spells how many PFs will there be, or people willing to join them, for other BLUs to get their spells.

Aye, that's the problem. It's fine for now but it'll be troublesome for the people who get to the party late. Maybe if you have some nice friends or FC mates it won't be so bad but for people who play solo? Good luck.

Or a level 60 BLU will simply be able to Doom/lvl5 Death lvl50 EX Primals, because who cares if it wrecks 6 year old content

Will those abilities even work on bosses / primals? A lot of bosses are immune to some of the debuffs of BLU's spells.

We still aren't sure how they will interact with bosses in dungeons, are we? Because they made it seem like you couldn't use it on all bosses. And, it wouldn't help you to doom it until it used the ability you need so you'd have to be able to survive until then.
I suppose leveling up a lot in advance is one way to go about it but hardly intuitive. Especially considering you need some skills for class quests.

No, we're not sure. But this could be an easy solution to make it easier to late starters.

And, it wouldn't help you to doom it until it used the ability you need so you'd have to be able to survive until then.

With Mighty Guard and White Wind, you'll probably be able tu survive long enough for the skill to be used. The tricky part would be if you need to reach a late phase for that skill to be used.

But we'll see...at worst, I'd say that you'd still regurlarly see some unsynced PF for farming Primal ponnies and birds or simply to check some Wondrous Tails, so I think you'll always find one or two people to join those trials.

I could imagine duty finder would be filled with BLU and they can easily obstruct gameplay esp. of newer players.

I don't think a sprout tank would have a good experience if a BLU can tank quite as good and one-shot everything or turns any run with another caster+attacking healer into a speedrun because a BLU can increase their magic damage by 95%. His healing is kinda op, too.

Or the other way round... only having a single target 120 pot attack slowing the rund down a lot.

Best way to go are pure BLU parties anyway (because of shared learning). Did Tam-Tara in less than 10 mins with just one other BLU pal when still <lvl 30 (and with room for improvement).
