Why I look forward to Limited jobs

[Hanayumi]

I actually liked how bluemage worked out as content, got all the skills and had a fun time doing it. An op, fun mess of a job that had you work for its skills, I understand why Devs had to make it the way it is. Think as long as the job requires you to do more than just level itll prolly end up as limited, so yeah beastmaster needing to hunt down its pets and puppetmaster needing to salvage parts for mammet. If anything I kinda want to see some limited job versions of jobs we already have, Bard and Dancer for example, a limited job where they become purely support and you have to find or figure dances and songs that buff or debuff like crazy but you need to do some convaluted DDR or rythum thing to perform, lol.

There is a way for those to work with regular jobs, and it would be that their stats/ilevel are set by how much pets/spells/parts they've collected. Basically, gear wouldn't give them any stat boost at all, so that gear hunting would be replaced by whatever hunting you need to do in that job. Of course, you'd still receive some skills by leveling up, but they'd mostly be buffs and rol skills to enchance your core mechanics. And of course, endgame content parts, pet jugs or monster essences...

OP job? When is it truly OP? The problem imo is that its mostly not OP for being a limited job that is not there for group content. Most of the skills are just the same with another name on it especially the AoEs. And the so called solo job needs a group that carry you through content to get a lot of your skills which imo makes no sense at all.

I am farming a few runs of ex primals each week with a friend who need them for Khloe. He is max level for that and I honestly dont see that as fun at all. I barely do any damage and have to get carried by him. (And did not get a single primal skill right now..) I dont even want to ever try that with a full blue mage group synched. Just one mistake could lead to your death and with that to you not getting the skill at all..
