So thats it for BLU?

[SweetPete]

I’m asking because it’s been pushed to level 70 now.

So now it’s basically going to only be updated once every 2 years? Sounds kinda strange to me. I don’t know, maybe I’m just hoping they pushed it to 70 because in patch 6.0 they will make it a real job. Since more than likely those jobs will start at 70.

Wishful thinking I know. I just can’t see it being updated only once per expansion. Kind of a waste if you ask me. They also only gave us one masked carnival this time around. Hmm I’m suspicious. What does SE have up it’s sleeve for BLU for the next expansion? Hmmm.

Not happening.

If anything 6.0 is going to introduce another limited job.

BLU kinda got the short end of the stick this time around with only title rewards and a single new Carnivale stage to tackle.

It is at least making the ShB relic grind go much faster considering how busted some of the new spells like Peripheral Synthesis are.

Tangentially related, but I'm kinda disappointed that all of the new instance skills are from 70 duties. Not a single one from a leveling instance. I would've liked to see, say, the Seduce skill from the second boss in Shisui as an AOE crowd control, or Ame-no-Murakumo from Susano as a line-based primal attack.

You’re probably right. So I guess they will just switch between the new limited job and Blu for updates? Maybe that’s how they will do it. I can agree with that I guess.

Very true lol.

They can still add those at some point I’m sure.

Depends on if limited job was deemed a successful venture.

How many people leveled BLU vs how many didnt. The devs have the numbers to show if it was worth the development time or not. The extra time that went into BLU, what could we have gotten in exchange.

I both agree and disagree with this idea. On one hand I would have liked to see more spells learned from leveling up, but on the other, I feel like putting more of them as level cap spells means that fewer players get left out if they're trying to catch up later. Or at least that's the impression I'm getting looking at the PF for people trying to find BLU spells. Parties recruiting for level 1-50 spells tend to stay actively recruiting much longer than level 70 or even level 60 spells.

But also I would add that there actually were a few spells you could learn before level 70, they weren't ALL at level cap. Tingle, Triple Trident, Strotam, Base Instinct, Choco Meteor, and Athereal Spark were all spells that could be learned while leveling.

It's a fun minigame tbh. It's like the best class for farming (lvl <= 70) fates right now
