how i would do beastmaster

[aveyond-dreams]

I cannot in good conscience support another drain on resources like Limited Jobs when other sectors of the game have been failing horribly in terms of gameplay - Blue Mage itself has been pushed to very low on the priority list in favor of other content and Beastmaster would inevitably suffer the same fate and become obsolete over time. The only way it will be viable long term is for it to exist as a full job.

Basically what he said. I would rather have a full unlimited job over a limited job so it can be relevant all the time

Nah, BLU gameplay has become something recurring expansion-wise. Whenever a level cap raise appears, you have new quests (noted that other jobs have job quests no more) that ties with one new Carnival stage. Then new skills to collect. Then new end-expansion dungeons/raids to tackle on.


BLU isn't mean for serious commitment, but a side activity. The only thing I think it should need now is a BLU-only duty finder.


Back to Beastmaster, I don't mind having it as another limited job, as long as it stays true to be a pet class where you have to pay attention to both your own and your pet's well-being. Not a stand-user/Persona-user class like Summoner.

...or make it a gatherer that facilitates acquisition of mats dropped by mobs. It can still have limited combat capability though.

Honestly, I am not sure the game needs any more jobs for the exact reason you stated. I feel it would be better to really start getting into the issues going on with the existing jobs.
