was they any news on beastmaster limit job

[StriderShinryu]

Nope. No mention of Beastmaster or any new limited job. Also no mention of Blue Mage continuing either right away or in EndWalker.

[Sotaris]

I'd say skip the whole limit job thing.

No news about limited job is good news. This whole idea is waste of resources.

limit job aren't a waste of rescoure their just different for want people want but they fun there different kind fun the kind fun you have get used and enjoy

I was surprised they didn’t announce more BLU content. It’s about 6 months until EW so I thought they would add something. I still haven’t leveled mine.

I would love a beast tamer type job, maybe they will add it later in EW. Those beast masters were all over Bozja.

Blue Mage likely will only get one major update per expansion. This because now it's 10 levels behind the current cap, and the job can enter any content with a premade party. The developers have pretty actively said they don't want it involved in the current savage content, so they only way with the systems as they currently are to do that is to make sure it always stays 10 levels behind.

If they do another update, I would assume it would only be to add more spells without increasing the level cap.

as a person who loves Blue Mage I must kinda disagree with you there. the thing is-is that while our job is fun in some degree but for most the whole "limited job" thing just feels like a half baked idea in game.

they call us the "solo job" but yet I still have to group up.
they call us the "magical dps job" but yet most of kit is a mix of physical attacks, healing, buffs, shielding, and some magic attacks.
they call us a "unique experience" yet literally all I do as a Blue Mage is kill mobs in the open world for HOURS, make parties in the Party Finder, and run the Masked Carnivale.

now don't get wrong, I LOVE the job but they must decide what they want to do with the job in the future. I'm fine with whatever at this point since I don't have much to any reason to play a Blue Mage anymore outside of achievements and I do not like that. No job should be this borked like this, not even the jobs I dont like.

Beastmaster Limitjob was a thing?
Can somebody show a source from YoshiP or SE confirming this was a thing that was gonna happen?

There was none. Players just made assumptions that BST was planned based on BST enemies/npcs in Bozja and comments made from the development team saying BST was their "favourite traditional FF Job" (I can't remember if it was Yoshi or Michael Christopher-Koji Fox who specifically said that), and put two and two together and came up with eight. Then when Reaper was hinted, players made further assumptions thinking that was BST.

If BST is ever planned, I don't see it coming any time soon to be honest - the BLU 'limited Job' experiment was generally regarded as a failure by most players and I think SE will just move onto a new concept as a result.

I figured lol. Internet gonna internet.

I dont consider Bluemage a failure in the slightest. I just think it needs to be expanded on and can even use some tweaks.
