    Personally more a fan of Missile. Seems to hit more often. Plus, it's almost kinda the more considerate option. I can't actually kill anything with Missile.

    Missile's success ratio is like 2 or 3 times that of tail skrew and doom. Also 1 use of it in a boss fate is usually instant gold unless the mob is sub 20% or something already.

    Edit: And just another tidbit, if they make the fate bosses immune to doom, they'd also be immune to tail screw, Missle, and Launcher as well due to them all sharing the same resistance.
    And now the event is underway. I propose a new name for the Blue Mage, no longer is it the Blue Mage, no from this day forward I shall refer to that Job as Troll Mage.

    I have a better idea! SE should stop making limited jobs that everyone has some kind of problem with and upgrade BLU to full job status

    I'm now going to slot Water Cannon and Protean Wave just so I can spray salt at everyone.

    BLU is supposed to be this amazingly overpowered job that can effectively solo lots of encounters.

    Doom, tail screw, missile, launcher all fulfill that job fantasy.

    So no, don't take them away.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    I don't think either of you have actually seen the damage being done right now. You have parties (and that's plural) of DNC, MCH and GNB all mashing bosses into paste. There is no 10 second count with or without BLU. Maybe your worlds are respectively dead but from what I've been witnessing on Primal, you see a FATE, and you better hope you don't lag because by the time you mount up and fly to it, it's gone.
    Yeah, I was running around some on blue mage for it having access to AE's in lower level zones, but nothing over 1s cast time is ever going to land on anything anyway.

    While swift + 1hp is fun on boss fates that have absurd HP scaling, its basically the only time its fun.

    That would be a downgrade. They only call it limited so those that don't get it won't get jealous.

    If I can't Provoke FATE targets as a tank, there is absolutely no reason for them to be vulnerable to Doom. Signed.

    You guys trying to defend it know full well that this is broken. Go play with your cheaty BLU toys on your own time and in your own instanced content, not in shared public content.
