    Personally cant think of any new jobs that wont tip the balance..seeing the game as it is...they would be weak at first..but so overpowered later on..

    They have "blue mages" in the game. They're called Beastmasters.

    Beastmasters have a different purpose than Blue Mages, Beastmaster is a solo job, and lets their monster act as a party member, Blue Mages on the other hand use abilities that were learned from monsters and use them on the party ie : White Wind

    I've heard rumors of Blue Mage being added with Rise of Zilarth. I'd love to see at least one new job, no matter what it is.

    We already have Rise of the Zilart, perhaps you mean Chains of Promathia?

    I've talked about blue mages with my friend. We'd both love to see them, but they'd be horribly unbalanced. At lower levels, all their spells would be weak and next to useless. At higher levels, their spells would be so powerful it wouldn't even be funny.

    I think their current selection of jobs is perfectly fine. They've covered almost every job that has ever appeared in the series.

    A geomancer would be interesting, but would be extremely limited.

    Traditionally a Blue Mage had to get hit with a mob's spell to learn it, I can see how this would pose the same problem it has in every other FF game.... Blue mage dies, PT dies, you don't learn the spell. Nothing major for hte low lvl crap but later on when you want to learn some uber secret ability off a mob up in Xacabard or something... well, you'd be screwed.

    I agree with the concensus here, the game is already very well balanced and the fact that you can change jobs yourself anytime you like more than makes up for the other less popular FF jobs not being implemented... in fact I believe it justifies it.

    Thats not given, if you read from the person stating facts about the new expansion, they are refusing to give any info for new jobs, personally i like to see SMN and DRG a little fixed on some issues first.

    Good way to make gil.

    'Casts Pimpin' muh hoes III'
    'Player X has been turned into your hoe!'
    'This hoe will make you 50 gil a minute, mediocre at best'
    'Do you wish to keep this hoe?'

    Be like BST but you'd be PPM -- Pimp Mage *nods* *goes back to bed*
