Thread: Blue mage at patch 4.5

If they were already going to build this ridiculous system, I don't see why not make a proper build, something they can balance, and have that learned from leveling up and from the job quests. Like in PvP, your actions would be swapped around so when you're in matched content, that's what you get to use, no ifs ands or buts. And then, if you wanted the extra solo experience, go do that solo experience.

I wasn't even looking forward to BLU so much, and at least one person I know who was is still pleased. I'm just astounded at the thinking process behind the design.

What a waste of a job. No one wants this content outside of the massochists who find Eureka to be the pinnacle of XIV.

Disappointing and another example of SE being out of touch with what players want or like.

Its now a job that is completely different from any other job. Which is what i thought people wanted.

Heck ya, i love leveling via FATES and using it for a 1v1 system that's already present in the game.

Whiteknights out hard in this.

The Carnivale system is not in the game already, not sure where you think you're seeing it.

Sucks you're not getting to play a "Blue Mage" that's really just a regular caster with spells named after beast spells in your precious raids. Truly, we are living in the darkest timeline.

Stop being so narrow minded about how a class can be added to the game. Less stressful that way.

I just realised, this means 50 levels of FATE grinding/non-roulette levelling dungeons if you're already done with MSQ. Welp, it'll make the folks that wanted a slow grind from 1 again happy.

XP gain is higher for the Blue Mage to compensate their lack of duty finder access.
