    [BLU] in PVP?

    It seems to me like the new PVP changes make it clearer than ever that BLU should receive its own PVP actions and join in on the fun. All of the restrictions that normally lock BLU out of content aren't present in the PVP scene. It seems like there's a lot of flexibility in pulling animations from the BLU spellbook and reworking effects much like how every other job has to build something that would fit in perfectly alongside the other jobs.

    Something that has constantly frustrated me is how isolated BLU content is and how it has no interactions with any other jobs because of it. But why not extend that into PVP? Since this new game mode and the job changes seem to be going over very well, this could be a great way to give BLU more ways to interact with the content of this game.

    Seeing how they've made each class present in the game unique with their own skills and limit breaks, there's very little reason for them to not add Blue Mage, they'd just have to decide on what it'd have and how it's Limit Break would function within PvP.

    Then again it's Limit Break could be Self-Destruct which kills both the BLU and anyone caught within it's range, which would be funny to see.

    LB being bad breath sounds fun.
    I'd love to see blue mage in pvp, it's a damn shame the dev team desperately wants people to forget blue mage exists.

    Curing Waltz is old and busted. The new hotness is Benediction Boogie. Make it happen, Squeenix!

    I think this is a great idea, with ONE major requirement:

    THREE BLU builds.

    I don't think it would be fair to BLU's to shoehorn it into a single role, but PVP thankfully could allow us some sort of flexibility and avoid losing BLU's identity.

    Give BLU a small core job kit and a few abilities that change with Aetherial Mimicry similar to GNB's Junction:

    * Core: Water Cannon, Hydropull, Ram's Voice, Ultravibration, Song of Torment, Cold Fog, Condensed Libra, Bad Breath
    * Tank - Diamondback, Chel Gate, Cactguard, Devour, Dragonforce
    * Healer - Exuviation, Pom Cure, Gobskin, Angel's Snack, White Wind
    * DPS - Matra Magic, Moon Flute, Rose of Destruction, JKick, Peripheral Synthesis

    I'd love seeing BLU enter PVP as an available job. Bad Breath and Flying Sardine are a must but past that, they can pick from a wide variety of the currently available blue magic for its kit. Like 1000 Needles, some of the primal spells, Glower,...

    As for the LB... Moon Flute, Nightbloom or straight up Shockwave Pulsar / Grand Delta, I'd say. Either way, I'm all for it!
