The future of BLU

[MrKimper]

Unique world bosses that only BLU's could fight or some such, maybe they give a powerful skill, also a BLU finder, maybe more co-op play for the carnival, I'd like a sort of duo mechanic to it where you could only queue up as a party of 2 to do the challenges yourselves.

- I'd like to see more spells that can be "combo'd", something that could be incorporated into a potential rotation. The Chimera spells are a good start but as it stands I feel the spells generally lack "flow".

- More unique animations would be nice. I understand those kinds of things take time but it's admittedly off-putting when I see iconic moves from the series like 1000 Needles and Bad Breath being relegated to sharing the same animations with so many other actions.

- I'd love it if the spells had a higher potency and/or were generally more powerful. It just feels that they were so worried about BLU being overpowered that they made it really weak. I don't know, it just feels like it takes soooo long to kill anything.

I dunno about 1000 needles and bad breath, those look fine to me, but sharpened knife not actually pulling a tonberry knife sucks!

I agree about damage and rotation. Cabalabob touched on what I think the problem is. EVERYTHING BLU does is just 130 potency. aqua breath = 90 potency + 40 potency overall DoT damage = 130, then high voltage = 130 when the enemy has aqua breath. So there's no actual benefit for doing aqua breath > high voltage over just spamming glower. Then there's spells like sharpened knife where it does more damage when the enemy is stunned, but if you're spending a GCD on the stun then it's not actually a gain unless you can get multiple sharpened knives into the stun. If more of the spells actually had a damage gain out of comboing over just spamming glower over and over then we might see more variety in their use.

Even spells like bristle are just a straight loss, 50% potency increase costing you a GCD, you could have just cast the same spell twice for a 100% potency increase. Only reason to use bristle is if you can't cast the same spell twice, like self destruct or final sting. If bristle was an oGCD spell like the primal abilities then it could work like dark arts, but as it stands it's just a really niche move like everything else on BLU.
