Blue Mage: Masked Carnivale 29 Needs Nerf Badly!

[Destati]

you don't need revive for anything and if you can't clear the story mode you have no business doing savage fights with bluemages.

You kinda need revive if you want to keep the party from wiping and starting over, even in normal content.

CNJ/WHM, AST, ACN, SCH, SMN, and RDM don't have their rezzes locked behind annoyingly difficult solo duties. Angel Whisper works the exact same way, yet has a ridiculously long cooldown and requires the completion of all 30 Masked Carnivale fights to obtain. It almost isn't worth the trouble.


Furthermore, you don't need to complete all of them to clear story mode, just round 20 for lvl 50 and round 30 for 60.

BLU party content is challenge content. If you want to do, .e.g., Alexander Savage with BLU, everyone should

1) already know the fight, as executed by a standard job party composition

and

2a) know how to handle the fight as a BLU party
or 2b) be prepared to wipe and then get it right the next time

People shouldn't be doing those fights on BLU if they can't already survive them as a real job. Do the learning on a different job, then apply the knowledge to BLU. Accordingly, raise is not something you should need or rely on in a BLU party.

The fights are honestly easier on BLU then with real jobs in a lot of ways, mostly due to White Wind being ridiculously strong and Mighty Guard/Diamondback making healing checks easier and letting you just cheese other problematic mechanics.

The only thing BLU struggles with is tanking as they're too squishy to take more then auto-attacks without Diamondback.
