    BLU is far from perfect. The spell learning needs to be adjusted (more open world/less primals).
    I also feel its underpowered as a limited "solo" job. They should at least double all potencies.

    As sure as others are, that BLU could be a normal job, I´m absolutely sure, that BLU would never have been implemented at all, if not limited.

    Also letting a limited job into DF won´t work. What might work is a limited job roulette (dungeons + hard primals).
    I really hope, they don´t scrap the limited job idea, just because BLUs implementation was a bit "difficult".

    There have been a few marketing mistakes in my opinion
    - calling BLU a job
    - putting the word "solo" on it
    - the leaks that didn´t mention the limited part
    - capping it at lvl 50

    I´m looking forward to 5.1 with the new spells and lvl cap and i really hope SE doesn´t get discouraged by the rage and tries more limited jobs (that never would get implemented otherwise).

    Explain why letting it into the DF wouldnt work. We already stomp arr content in the DF with our inflated potencies and iLVL. BLU in the party wouldnt speed up or slow down a party significantly

    If we let BLU into df, they would need to balance it somehow with the other jobs. But a limited job shouldn´t be balanced at all.

    I mean I guess if a limited job should be hot garbage, then you're right. Shouldn't be balanced at all.

    This is ignoring the fact that limited jobs shouldn't exist to begin with.

    I mean if they let it in the DF for just the level 50 content its already pretty balanced, slap a no self destruct in DF restriction and just let them go honestly, theres nothing else BLU can do that other classes cant, and its damage output isnt even that great compared to the other 50s
