I Thought BLU Was Made For Solo Players

I would just advocate for more blue mage content. Or better yet blue mage activities and challenges that are in seasonal rotation for both blue and endgame rewards. We put in all the work to level and learn all the spells but they cant be bothered to update the Masked Carnivale with more trials or expand on it for party based challenges and just rely on Blue Log that hasnt been updated for aeons at this point?

Especially with how insulting they locked behind a blue weapon in content they cant do. If theyre start doing shit like that, how about create a weekly system where you have challenging fights both soloable and party wise that if you complete them all gives you an extra savage loot or you get some upgrade reageants or tokens or whatever.

Why is this game so afraid in incentivizing gear rewards (which is arguably the main driving force for endgame) in other pieces of content? Just look at current WoW in how they allow you to earn endgame gear rewards in all sorts of content both quests and outworld. The more I think about this the angrier I get at how mediocre this "MMO" is in terms of encouraging for you to play it.

More content would be nice. I wish they'd just unlock the BLU log. The only thing stopping me from tearing through the BLU log is the fact that duties must be completed with a full party. Most people don't even care about the BLU log, I usually see people asking for the weekly targets in PF at the start of the week and during the weekends, but there's not that many listings.

Maybe it really is down to rewards. Allied seals seem to be BLU's choice of currency, but I'm always at cap. They could do something with that at least too.

Yeah thats the key here; giving players the option to do it solo or with a party, perhaps even adjust reward payout based on either method. Im saying they need to start implementing current endgame rewards from Blue Mage; so that it incentivizes players to pick up and play the job if it meant that getting access to this content allows them to get useful rewards for gearing alt jobs for raiding. Of course this doesnt mean that it should solely be this for Blue Mage endgame, definitely we would like to have unique rewards and cosmetics tied into completing challenges and activities with the job but the BIGGEST problem with this game is that just in general they dont dedicate resources to keep their side content systems relevant with new reward cycles.

I'm no expert in maintaining an MMO but you figured if the intention for Blue Mage is to have its updates you figure they'd do a better job and making sure players are able to play it frequently? This is not about always bringing in more and more content, its really just keep the job relevant for both casual and endgame even if they cant fully participate in the current. This is not something that should hastily be abandoned the minute you get your new levels and spells.
