    Ah, having re-read this statement, I now assume "actual jobs" means the Limited Jobs themselves, not a term meant to distinguish non-Limited from Limited Jobs.

    ... So wait, continuing with BLU as the existing case study, you want the job whose main appeal is that a team of them can essentially spam Limit Break on-command to be able to enter World First races, just so people can say "I did it on my BLU" without it being seen as a crutch?
    By means of removing all of the gimmicks, kit flexibility, and firepower (including the aforementioned LB spam) that actually makes them special, but without actually suggesting any sort of replacement playstyle for them? Hell, after already complaining about all of the gimmicks AND the filler spell options they have?

    Tell me, what's the difference between bringing your imagined version of a "balanced BLU" and, say, a BLM to a prog group?
    Or between a "balanced BLU" and a new caster, like Geomancer, Time Mage, or something entirely original to 14?

    Genuinely curious, since you still haven't suggested how a job like "balanced BLU" would actually play -- how to replace its core playstyle after gutting everything from the current iteration and demanding essentially a new job in its place -- but somehow have the tautological impression that it already is fundamentally different by virtue of... what? The name alone?
    So here's your chance to prove your point. If the people who were once pining for BLU to even be represented are now so thoroughly disgusted by how the Limited Job version turned out that they would prefer to have never seen it at all, then please, do show me any material on what would hypothetically have replaced it if not for Limited Jobs.

    Anything.
