and bahamut/coils is not basic, its savage level content. Also, blu mage is only 50 right now, it will have more abilities later.


And yeah, they can ban every skill from blue mage that isnt a generic damage skill, and then it will be crap. But regardless SE has no intention of balancing a job for duty finder, and outside duty finder. They already decided not do it.



Except that it can't, I provided those examples earlier in our conversation. In fact, BLU can't do most of what a healer needs to do. A BLU can't remove your debuffs. It can't get you to full from one HP, it can't rez you, it cant provide regens, it can't provide shields, it cant cast a protect. The only thing it CAN do is waste a GCD to cast an AoE heal as long as it had a decent amount of HP left. Those situations are extremely limited and not conducive to what a healer needs to do. Lvl 50 content does not reveal this fact because it has far fewer healer mechanics than expansion content.



Not every skill that isn't a damage skill needs to be disallowed from the DF, just the obviously broken stuff. It's like you don't know how the roles in FFXIV work.
