SE, the concept of "Limited Jobs" is a really bad idea, turn back now

[JiSH]

In honest opinion I would rather have the same updates as the normal jobs, cause think about it they only need to improve Blue Mage once per expansion with the spells and content rather than in patches and in patches they can adjust the spells and abilities, just like the rest of the normal job as they are being constantly adjusted every patch. Meaning they'll free up more in the budget and time for more variety of end game content rather than wasting resources on a content that is extremely restrictive compared to the normal job system. Obviously with what we have now with Bozja guarantee its going to be barely alive early or mid November and will be active on weekends or when there is a Bozja Clear Party. With Blue Mage for Level 70 I can already see people grinding or power leveling to Level 70 and immediately getting all of the spells with their inner circles or groups of friends rather than using party finder but it'll still be active nonetheless and in about 1/2 weeks done... Even savage for those who already done it before with normal jobs. I can probably guess that it can take 1 week for a group to clear Omega savage if they are a static and if its random well... it really depends if its a dedicated group 1-3 week and if random 1-2 months. I mean you can easily clear Masked Carnival no problem when you have the necessary spells for it, spell collecting has been made faster as the pre-made group can be anything as long there is a one Blue Mage in the party the learn rate is 100%. So really SE has just inadvertently killed Blue Mage in 1/2 weeks with it being a Limited Job. If it were a Normal Job it'll last for a very long time.

Worst thing about BLU(the current LIMITED job) is how fast they died down, like you said just give it one or two weeks at most and the content will be "dead", it's already bad enough. Not to mention the newcomers that want to try BLU they'll be gated by skill learning, and with each update people who doesn't do BLU on the get go will be left behind more and more. Imagine if they keep the limited job system as it is right now, what's gonna happen by say, the end of next expansion? how are people are ever gonna catch up with this, especially with how PF restricted it is.
