Considering, how predictable incoming damage is and how powerful White Wind and Snacc are i do not even miss OGCDs much, but 1 or 2 would be a welcome addition. When you're not healing, you have a lot of stuff to do and it feels good since you have most of your dps kit. Gobskin and Stotram is also good for less spicy incoming aoes.
There's one thing that Blue Mage healing needs attention and that is with tank healing.

Unless your Blue Mage tank is doing a spot-on job with the unreliable defensives/occasional white winds/etc, chances are that you'll be casting Pom Cure a lot... And - just - Pom Cure for tank healing, because all of the other spells: White Wind / Strotram / Angel Snack / Gobskin are all suited for AoE healing.

Thank goodness that we have dps oGCD spells that can be weaved between the Pom Cures, else it would simply be a mindless thing to do to maintain the tank alive. I hope the next update adds more single-target tools, maybe some ogcd 5 star spells, especially if the tanks keep being as squishy and spiky as they are now.

I love the DPSer Blue Mage, though... The only thing that I'd change is actually turning the Condensed Libra into an actual job gauge mechanic that dynamically shifted through empowered elements.
