No discussion on fixing Blu?????

[Mito123]

Just saw both fanfest and live letter and it saddens me blu was not discussed at all. I feel like this is going to become like diadem and scrapped. My favorite job in all of ff to be a mockery.

I guess we'll have to wait until March and the Japan Fanfest to see if they mention anything about it.

It's possible that because of focusing on other aspects of 5.0 that they haven't gotten around to planning out what they're actually going to be doing long term with BLU.

[Mito123]

Probably yea

Well, if you take note, this new and last 24 man raid, all blm gear also has "blu". So they will release more things. I think that this early model that we have now is just a grab so it can attract peeps while we wait for expansion. Have Faith lil' one. :*

Same.

Not only for BLU, but also for the fates of all their future planned "Limited Jobs"

Would be such a shame for so much content to go to waste for no good reason.

I'm a bit confused by all these "fix BLU" threads. The fact that it's not what you wanted doesn't mean it's broken. The job arrived working exactly as promised. What part needs fixing?

[Kalise]

The job arrived working exactly as promised.

Except for the part where it was touted as a job that was intended for solo play but mostly features party play as a requirement to do much of the things it actually has to do?

The part where they said that it was unbalanced because of powerful spells yet outside literally 3 skills the class is pretty average especially at level 50 when 1 of the aforementioned skills falls off in power?

What about the part where they try and make it special so it can live up to previous iterations of Blue Mages and it falls flat because their spells are mostly not interesting and the ones that are interesting get fully resisted by most things that aren't trash mobs?

Maybe the part where learning spells is supposed to be fun but then we have the Primal skills with crappy learning rates (As well as requiring EX content...) that are just horrible to try and grind?

Or the part where they advertised the Masked Carnivale as having a lot of cool fights that are like puzzles when the majority of them are just "Spam Glower until everything is dead" with maybe a spicy "Insta-kill the act with Final Sting/Self Destruct (Because actual insta-kills don't work, you have to just cheese out 20k+ damage nukes instead...)?

BLU was never touted for solo play in anything but the Overworld and the solo content devised specifically for them (Carnival). If you assumed it meant BLU could solo Ex Trials and all of Coil, that's a misunderstanding on your part because that was never said.
