The Big Blue Feedback Thread

I don't know what your data center is like but here on Primal, BLU was extremely popular for a long time.

BLU was absolutely dead on my Data Center within 2 weeks of release. Only 3 people in my entire FC even leveled one to 60. It looks like it has potential to be fun, but a pittance in Allied Seals just isn't an incentive.

Really? On Crystal I still see BLU related PFs all the time. Not as much as in week 1, obviously, but there are definitely still people farming the spells and doing the content.

Thank you. I can't speak for the light data center (Zodiark), but Hyperion and the rest of Primal saw the same kind of activity that you are describing here.

The same thing on Aether. Granted my center is one of (if not the biggest), but doesn't take away that I see frequent PF for spells, logs and the occasional Discord plug for the mount. I even saw a PF for Weeping City yesterday. Though I don't think making a PF for that a day before a major patch was a good idea.

I'm on crystal and I can tell you that the PF blue groups that actually fill are few and far between since the last month or so. Yeah you see the same old PFs up for the same old dungeons for latecomers trying to get the same old spells everyone else already has like aetherial mimicry and missile and whatever, but for all the other stuff? No, it's dead jim. If you're trying PF to get log entries done that don't have a coveted spell in them, or trying for 24-man, EX primal or Morbol mount runs at this point, you're wasting your time. Even if you sometimes see a PF up, it won't fill before people get tired and disband. Discord is still a viable option for Morbol runs I believe, but PF isn't going to get you anywhere unless you're lucky enough to get a pre-made that is just looking to fill in one or two spots.

Thats typical of many pieces of content during the games lull period. There are simply far less players playing, and BLU doesn't incentivize joining spell learning parties if you already have the spell. I guarantee that if SE implements a kind of "first time bonus" for aquiring BLU spells, those parties would fill much better.

BLU has a lot of room to grow, and it'll just keep getting better the more QoL they add.
