    I find this most troubling because BLM is a DD he cant just run around and cure if his spells are elemental reisted like the WHM. Which means in boss fights and such elemental resistances need to mean nothing else the BLM becomes useless (and as we've seen this is partially true as BLM just lays out thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder what type of boss is it? dont care thunder thunder thunder thunder).


    I'd love to see the BLM have the wheel just so we can not totally destroy a class based on elements or totally destroy the elemental wheel on EG content, as WHM can heal and DD well (if the monster is elementally weak to stone but people think the BLM should be stuck to the three elements and getting nothing else to do if those dont cut it - I'm not getting that).


    Also OP, and pretty much -everyone- else that suggested WHM lose their elemental skills made sure to give WHM non-elemental skills that continued their DD ability. However there are some who think that BLM and WHM can share and I think thats legitimate as well - there is no reason why an element cant be considered for DD and protection I mean even on the WHM itself you have stone the spell and stoneskin the defense.

    Also as a matter of FF lore BLM has had the whole wheel before, WHM has had parts of the wheel, and sometimes both could learn both - and in FFXIV itself I dont remember any part of the game saying "stone is only for WHM because its a non destructive destructive magic (wtf? lol)"
