The core issue of BLU right now is the versatility that BLU offered in past games vs what will actually be in the game and I fear the latter will not be a good representation of the former.

To expand on what I mean, if we look already at the cross role skills, the choice is illusionary. No healer worth their salt will leave Esuna off their hotbar in the same way Tanks won't go without rampart. Translate that to the BLU and the job won't have that same versatility its known for. I can already foresee a lot of "They put that skill in but not the other." and "How come there's not more skills we can pick from BLU". There maybe some iconic monster skills that may make the cut but at the end of the day, the job will see more shackles in terms of what it can do because of the role it will be given and the limits imposed so its not cast aside because of the ultimately "there's only one way" to play BLU.

I really want the job to come but I just can't help but feel it will clash with what makes it iconic: versatility.
