Blue mage is a waste of potential, change my mind.

Blue Mage is the most pointless waste of resource content I have ever seen implemented into this game. (Give us public damage parsers and modding already)

Are you familiar with Diadem by any chance?

Are you familiar with Diadem by any chance?

I have played Diadem and I had more fun in each version than I'm having with Blue Mage. Not even trying to be harsh here, it's just how I feel.

After almost leveling my bird to 20 with needle spam I reached level 50, and now I'm supposed to get a dungeon skill for a quest somehow when my strongest attack is a 130 potency AoE. The run is going to be really slow and I don't even know how many it will take. Why is it not guaranteed the be learned or some skill from the overworld?

I've wanted more solo content for a long time but that means content that is designed as a challenge for solo players, not a grind that is always more efficiently done as a group (Eureka, BLU skill farm, PotD). From what I've read the Masked Carnival is not very challenging and instead of having mechanical difficulty or puzzles it is more about wasting time acquiring specific skills from group content to counter boss elements. Wth?

The new GATEs are better for solo players than this. What I really find most disappointing is that this minigame or side content comes with the heaviest cost we've ever seen. Tripple Triad, Fishing, Orchestrion and Verminion did not seal the fate of one of the most requested jobs. I can ignore the content but I cannot ignore the price we pay for every limited job.
