Limited Job #2: Beastmaster

[Kikoten]

I think your point shows a fundamental misunderstanding of what BLU is trying to be (which is the devs fault, not yours). You see it as a DoM when actually it isn't and never should have been. One critique I have seen of BLU is simply in how it is named and presented, instead of being a "limited job" it would be categorised as a Disciple of Knowledge, completely separate from battle classes, and seen as an alternative activity like DoH/DoL, with the focus being a hybrid of battle/collecting. If we are calling BLU limited for not being able to raid, should we also call ALC limited because it made CHM a crafter not a DoM job?

BLU is not limited, BLU is different, that is the key difference that this change makes. BLU can do all the dungeons and raids within its level and has an incentive to, and there is meaningful content built around that idea, it just isn't mixed in with the other jobs, because it isn't the same Discipline as them, it is separate content.

Making BST a DoK rather than a DoW would only enhance the experience that BLU was trying to create, and would be really healthy for the game.

Yes, yes, and yes. Disciple of Knowledge would fit BLU best. I'm thinking about giving BLU another try.

You should do it. It's fun. BLU stuff still fairly active, even on Crystal (my home). Just don't be afraid to start your own PF if you don't see anything going on. There's plenty of hungry BLU out there, just not enough that take the first step of starting groups.
