We have a ton of people on excal and there are almost always people looking for subs or permanent members. See earlier post in the last page or so of team full of owls looking for two new members. Also all three goon FCs have four capped airships.

I know, but it's literally my fc, like I'm the leader. invested a lot of time into building it, getting a house, workshop, etc.

Sell it to someone then to recoup some of your losses. But still, excal is the best place to be.

It's not an actual musou colab. It's from the FFXI crossover event. Learn to read moonrunes.

Not to rain on your parade but the outfit is from a FFXI character.

Although if we ever get to the Far East and/or a Samurai job we'll probably see more armor in that design.

It only took XI almost a decade and a half to get one Far Eastern zone.

So we'll see one in half the time because the developers are still killing themselves (taking a month off after like four years of incredible work cycles is not enough, heh) trying to create stuff for the game? :v:

We only got ninja when we did because it made sense in the storyline for them to show up when they did and the team had been working on it for a long time as the team teased it back in 2.2, which means they had done at least some planning for it almost from ARR launch.

For real though I can't think of anything more unhealthy for the balance of this game than adding more jobs. There's already 2.5 jobs that are unused and they've shown that basic kit of a new job is just going the same as every other job in that role + one thing.

Just make this game balanced again Yoship. Then you can add in whatever.

Though actually looking at it both smn and mch are about half as used as their respective other job in thier same role so I guess it's 3 jobs but really two fully unused jobs and two kinda unused jobs.

I realize I'm probably getting Taint Reaped (Belzac'd?) but what do you actually mean by "used" in this context? If you mean population, I dunno about MCH but I swear I've seen plenty of SMNs compared to BLMs lately. Or do you mean mechanics or something?

The only classes that are below-par for endgame content at the moment are PLD (Oaths oGCD, better AoE threat, Shield Swipe oGCD) and AST (a cooldown that resets Draw/RR and small potency increase).

For progression purposes it's likely not correct to rule out any class. DRK is a better tank then PLD overall but for A2S we opted for a PLD because their skillset was better suited for our strategy.

God damn it, where are my ant keys?! I'm gonna miss my flight!
The only way I could see Blue Mage working in FFXIV's system is if they made it a 1 - [Current level cap] Job, where their job quests that they get every 5 levels have them go out and fight a monster to learn its ability. And even that's a stretch.

Sorry but I think you're wrong. I've invested 60m+ into my airships, ALONE, and over 10m in housing glam, ALONE. I spam dungeons for gear to accumulate 50-100 cerulean tanks a day, paid for own house, and worked with family to build my freecompany. Some butthurt person in the future, has no rights to any of that, regardless of how much they don't like my thought process, or what I say.

This mentality right here is what keeps me from inviting anyone to my FC. I'm sitting at 8 people, 4/5 active, and I'll likely forever keep it this way knowing people like this are out there.

This is more how I'd imagine it working. I just miss playing a primarily CC-oriented class, and Blue Mage seems like a perfect fit for that. :(
