    Still Excited for More Limited Jobs?

    When Blue Mage was announced, many were excited at the prospect of other odd-ball jobs, such as Beastmaster and Puppetmaster, potentially being added as Limited Jobs.

    Now that BLU has been released and we've seen it in action, I'm wondering if folks are still looking forward to BST, PUP, or other jobs being added as future Limited Jobs.

    Maybe the dancer could see its use as such a job.
    I mean, there are already those dance instructors where you get dance emotes at level 15, along with the songbirds that pop up here and there.
    Ul'Dah certainly favors dancing, in some sort of the way.

    Wouldn't be surprised that you perform dance-offs, becoming the next lord of the dance. Ha.

    They did get rid of the "The Time of My Life" GATE from the Gold Saucer which was kind of like dancing.
    The NPCs there were even named Lord/Lady of the Dance.

    Maybe in preparation to introduce Dancer as a limited job?
    Nah, they wouldn't be that silly....right?

    God, please no...

    EDIT: On a more serious note, I don't mind the limited jobs as a whole if we still get regular jobs, but they should really flesh them out a little more before releasing them.
    BLU was fun for a short while but is overall really bare-bones and the next update to it is quite far away.

    I suspect there's a far more mundane reason for removing it: the introduction of Viera.

    Either they've taken it temporarily offline while they reprogram it to fit in the extra set of dancers, or they've decided that it was unpopular enough to cancel it altogether rather than update it.

    {No thanks.} I'd rather not see DNC as a limited job. Give it a Perform gimmick if you would like, but keep it away from the Limited Job System.

    Why not? why would you want Dancer, a historically unique buffing job that learns it's skills from other dancers to be a cookie cutter healer/melee DPS, they'd just be the same as [Insert Melee or Healer here] that's not fun.

    Why would you want a historically unique buffing job that is isolated and limited on how it can interact with other players? If you're just buffing yourself, you're just playing with yourself. You'll go blind.

    but don't you see, it would be UNIQUE the first auto attack specialist job of it's time.

    So you could actually play it...?

    Having unique mechanics and being a full job aren't mutually exclusive.

    Cause I could at least enjoy it for more than 1 week before casting it into oblivion. Blue mage is a very short lived "learn spells" gimmick class which is ruined by lack of open world skills and horrible rng.

    I'll take a "cookie cutter" class I can enjoy in all content over a super restricted class that is isolated in its own world.
