    I hopped in to test the waters and immediately felt bored. It's like SE doesn't realize why BLU is getting a bad rep. Yes the fundamental gimmick of a BLU is there, but with no basic system to guide players it's all just a jumbled mess of boring.

    Oh look, anyone can paint something they dislike in a really bad light, if they reach really hard.
    You're missing the point. It's not the fact that things are reskinned, it's how that reskin is presented to us. Also the issue comes down to, how many different Redskins do we need within the same job. It makes "sense" to have 6 different AoE versions of a skill because of the elemental weaknesses. But how many variations on those skills do we need? Not to mention BLU has like no single target moves, so you have to be careful when pulling mobs. There is also the fact that BLU has no combo skills, and skills that do combo rely on status ailments that lose their potency over time.

    People know that basically everything is a reskin, but BLU doesnt do a good job of making that. For SE it seems their main focus is collecting the spells, but they seem to have forgotten that those spells need a purpose too.

    Plus the biggest issue is claiming BLU is designed as "solo content" but then making a majority of it require group play. How does that make sense. I mean why have skills in dungeons if we can't enter them without other players
