Neon obviously has uncovered the secret that SE hid all this time.. all 100 spells can be used in lieu of current spells! Light based? Magic hammer time.

Hmm I don't know if this has been said I didn't read all of the posts. Leveling blu to 90 without spells in abyssea is making you gimp to begin with. It's the same effect as with astral burning. You don't learn the job at all and a blu that has taken the time to level the job the right way will blow your blu out of the water. Kudo's to all the old school blu's that pretty much had to solo their way up. Easy exp will never teach you the job. The minute you are on your own ur not gonna know what to do and get raped by the mob.

I don't care how painful your leveling experience was. You're still not going to know jack about how to play a job endgame straight after leveling.

You mean kinda like how a lot of people levelled a job the "hard way" and still couldn't learn how to play it?

Lol I'm just bitching to ***, I guess. I could really care less. I know relic holders that are just as worthless. It all depends on the individual, I suppose.

I'm just bored waiting for this Sh*t to update. I haven't played for awhile. Can always go against the grain on a forum and be amused as to what is derived from that statement.

yeah make sure you get helldive and cursed sphere because they are useful.... why would anyone suggest getting all 110 or whatever spells?? Skill up, get the 16 yellow procs because that's all you'll be used for.

It's possible to care less. It just implies that you care to some degree to begin with. I couldn't care less means you care at 0 seeing as there is no way to negatively care.

As a retired blue mage who regrets ever playing such a gimped job let me just tell you to give up the job and level something else.

In seriousness? It entirely depends what you want to do with it. If it's going to be your main then there really isn't an excuse to get every single spell. If you're going to be a proc-*** or time-*** then start with the absolute necessities (should be obvious) and work your way from there.

it begins /looks to the east
you go this way, i'll go that way?

make your BLU into a melee DD and build from there, that way you can get laughed out of the job and find something else.

That's basically the way to go with Almace tbh. Most physical spells aren't worth casting at that point, especially with high buffs or when fighting a high defense/level mob.
