    I got BLu to 50, completed the Masked Carnivale, got 2/3 achievements (missing Perfect Blue - auto attack keeps preventing me =_=), and missing 4 spells (Mountain Buster, Veil, Look and Snort).

    Husband is under the impression that BLU is being unfairly compared to higher level jobs at higher levels/ilevels and not compared to them when they were level 50. Especially with how incomplete BLU feels. He says there's no reason to make the class be able to one shot the bosses or dungeons - what would the class bring then? It'd be no different than the other jobs currently sitting at 70 (to which I conceded his point). The Japanese players are definitely being more 'fair' from what we've read.

    To me, I feel I was mislead ('designed for solo content' I did not take to mean level only through open world and only for Masked Carnivale) and could at least do level 50 dungeons solo (maybe not primals). Or at least a whole party of BLU could do primals and dungeons, but even that is not possible.

    Not only is it possible but people on Aether have been doing it. Hells they've even been doing all BLU runs of the ARR 24 man raids. Last I saw they had already taken on LotA and ST while now working on getting a WoD going.

    Honestly I'm having loads of fun leveling with my other half. We goof around a lot and I think that's more of what the class was designed for. We got a lot of ridiculous abilities that serve no real purpose aside from the humor factor. Not going to lie, watching two people play hot potato with a mob by using sticky tongue is one of the most amusing things I've ever seen in this game.

    Completely finished here, got every spell, every battle, every title. My final opinion: It starts out fun in every aspect (leveling, learning, carnivale, being OP), but quickly each of those ends up becoming boring or nonexistent. So many things are immune to the OP spells, leveling on enemies gets boring, learning primal spells is downright painful, carnivale looses its luster when you learn a particular gimmick. My biggest complaint is that when it's over, it's over.

    Each of those seemingly useless abilities ends up being a schtick for a Masked Carnivale match. So, there are uses for them, just not in standard gameplay. Of course, if BLU were a tank, Sticky Tongue would be a nice tool for picking up strays. If it could do regular content it would also be a good tool as a DPS to move a trash mob away from a healer and toward the tank's AoE, as a reverse Fluid Aura.

    Ooh, imagine being able to rope in those annoying ranged ghosts that won't come in to be AoEed with the rest of the monsters!

    Not interested in beloved jobs being 'ruined' (limited).
    I'll enjoy it if they ever make it unlimited.
    Till then it's useless content to me.
