7 blues in a raid? probably only have to get boss to 30% health to kill it with self desctruct damage combo. And status effects do matter, like 10% dmg reduction, slow, paralyze, blind, silence, 3 stuns, etc. I have literally took blu places other jobs couldnt hack it, and this is just a level 50 blu, with level 50 skills and multipliers.
its very strong and versatile for that level range. and it definitely would negate roles in parties, 4 blue dont need a tank, or a healer to do content, they can probably outspeed run a regular team. that alone means they dont fit in regular parties, and if they did make them a regular dps, hey have to take away all that stuff, as well as make them generic instead of tactical.
theres ton of other dps for that normal dps playstyle.
