Remove limitation on Blu

[Mito123]

Please remove the limitation on Blu it's not necessary anymore. The solo aspect failed it's extremely weak and the job can't solo anything. On top of that you need group to even learn spells nothing about blu is solo other than carnival. I think it should just be balanced and limitation removed. Keep the spell learning and make it so in order to do duty finder you need X amount of skills or whatever. Problem solved.

The notion of soloing was in the context of solo content -- Masked Carnivale. There was never any intention of making BLU able to solo anything else other than that, the community misinterpreted the interview, or it wasn't made clear enough.

No, the notion was in relation to Blue Mage as a whole.

Famitsu writer:I can already smell a "don't interpret learning like that".

Yoshida: That's also one of the reasons why we couldn't implement blue mage. Our conclusion was, we may as well make it into solo content that you can enjoy on your own, and that way, FFXIV can have jobs that leap over bounderies and have a wider range of game play and we should run through with it.

I mean, at best you can maybe narrow it down to specifically learning spells. But then you're still at odds given the number of spells that REQUIRE party play in order to obtain.

Masked Carnivale and Learning Spells were mentioned specifically, as being solo content. The former is, but is predicated on learning a spell that can only be found in group content (Glower) the latter most certainly is not as there are about half the skills locked behind group content.

Everything else BLU... Well there isn't anything else about BLU. They're literally just learning Spells and Masked Carnivale. Both require party play in order to access/complete.

I gotta be honest. Statements like those sound like moving the goalpost.

Also, for anyone who's curious, I found a Twitter post that has reported on some of things said by the Japanese community. Even they wonder why Blue Mage is a supposed solo job that can't solo.

Masked Carnivale is the reason Blue is a Solo Job besides that it's a Normal Job except limited. Or as anyone on the servers say Go play a real Job.
