Thank you SE for...

Good luck doing enough damage to kill the boss with that fat whopping 1 whole magic damage and no buffering gear from quests. I suppose you could just powerlevel your way to 50 and then do it.

You suppose right, yes. And soloing these dungeons or instances actually imply that you can use skill #35, 40 or 42. So you have to be 50 anyway.

Okay, I'll bite, if it's designed for party play in mind, then why can't it join duty finder? why doesn't it just have a rotation that you'd learn in the overworld? why isn't it just, i don't know, a normal job with learning slapped on it? is it because it's broken? is it because it can "Do every single role as well as the normal job for that role"? is it just "because it was designed that way"?

I didn't say it was designed for party play... Gosh, can people stop putting words in my mouth? And you also completly missed my point, as Deceptus did.

SE did not present Blue Mage as a solo job exclusively. That's it. That's my point. My entire point. There's nothing more to it. Nothing else to extrapolate from it.
