You only need Whirl of Rage, Quad. Continuum, and Dream Flower.

Also, trolling?

If you don't make use of every spell, you don't know ***about BLU.

I make sure to check my logs to make sure fellow BLUs use Foot Kick and 1000 Needles as much as I do.

Honestly, get Dream Flower/Magic Fruit(or P. Embrace) and Battery Charge. Then start working your way from the bottom and go up; maybe enhancing spells first. Need a certain magic skill to even learn the spells.

Ummmmmm first off you have to raise your Blue magic to high levels or learning spells is REALLY hard.I have a 90 Blu and a friend who leveled his Blue Mage thru the abys and even mid range spells were hard to learn like Frentic Rip we must have killed 30+ Imps and he didn't learn it.I suggest getting Blue magic up to over at least 275 before trying for the better or higher level spells or keep doing abys to level Blue magic.Skilling up blue magic againest decent or higher level mobs is hard because of hate.

"I want to get all spells but which are important to start with"

"All of them"

Indeed. I find 1000 Needles to be very intuitive and easy to use. It's my main damage dealing spell and the fact that it only costs 350MP to use is a plus in my book. Its 12 second casting timer is also a godsend when compared to the long casting timers of Quad. Continuum and other such inferior spells. I understand that the DD spells before LVL.62 are just there for filler and something to do before getting 1000 Needles and cruising for the rest of the game, but sometimes I wonder why SE even made DD spells (or any spell for that mater) after LVL.62.

Edit.

Also, that VIT and AGI bonus is a must have.

When did you last use body slam?

The last time I was doing a BCNM with a ton of fodder mobs w/low DEF?

Just learn one good DD spell and call it a day. That would make you better than most BLUs out there nowadays.

First and foremost, headbutt. Decent support would include plenilune embrace, animating wail, battery charge, refueling, mp drainkiss. offensive ones that carry a decent auxiliary are ones like regurgitation, cannonball, dream flower, and goblin rush (especially for those self light chains. Pure attack ones would include quad continuum, frenetic rip, benthic typhoon etc.

I don't know jack ***about blu, just mentioning ones I see used all the time.

The obvious answer would be to get all the spells if you are serious about blu. sure, there are alot of spells that may seem useless, but you will never know what it is to play blu without them.

Now for the "must have" spells, thats just really depends on how you wanna play blu.
