Blue mage is a waste of potential, change my mind.

Both Angel Whisper and Fire Angon are nerfed Auryan, neither need squinting to see that (Angel Whisper being the worst raise in the game and the worst Angel Whisper in the FF series). Similarly many status effect spells have lower chances and had more enemies made immune (I never got to ignore petrify as much as my enemies), yet you still spam on targets that do work (both balanced and boring mechanics combined - what a win . . .). Some of our buffs are not quite as like the monster counterpart. Brush with death was also a nerf but I wasn't even thinking of that.

If the point was true blue original spells they didn't do that. They balanced job for group play, after saying they didn't want to balance the job for group play.

It's true some balance could make more interesting combos, but I would argue their current design hardly successfully facilitated that (with the trinity forced there is little in the way of builds and a lot of useless spells and mechanics and in general low quality mechanics if you don't collect many party exclusive spells). If they were to balance but wanted it to be crazy for the full wildness of blue and most exciting game play while not worrying about any party issues then they failed, it still relies on party and the combinations are relatively tame so they can put it into their PF. If they were to balance it for party content then they then removed it from party content.. so they could offer majority useless spells and many spells that could work in DF balanced (bad breath would be fine), then again I would say they messed up. If they were going to make of exclusive party finder content I would say their communication failed and they chose the wrong design base (another limited job would have been smoother). I believe they were doing the last one, PF exclusive- manipulating true blue whenever it messes with their PF goal.

Your comment on accessibility is hard to take seriously as well since pretty much every major blue suggestion I've seen would make blue easier to pick up and available for more content. Current blue is the least accessible with entire core mechanics forced to the whim of the servers PF. Having to do a simple quest isn't inaccessible. Having to pray a group of people will be available to get a core spell on a job that has limited purpose and they have no reason to help you if they already have or don't want to do that content- that's inaccessible. Solo quests being considered inaccessible. . In comparison to forced PF on limited desire content. .? . . Most inaccessible blue is the one we have now.
