    Probably, I've had my skill capped since like level 7 and I've had REALLY good learning rate. Got cursed sphere and everything else so far no more than 2 tries.

    havent confirmed myself, but a thf friend (pii) reported that physical blu spells stack with sneak attack, and SA does not wear off after casting

    It stacks (tested myself) but I'm pretty sure it wears off... that'd just be stupidly overpowered if it didn't.

    I need to look at a BST guide so I can get some nice BLU leveling spots. Soloing > shitty parties.

    My best so far has been doing the gigas' leeches in qufim for #5 240 solo. Crazy how well BLU stands up to EM and T mobs.

    haven't read everything on this thread so i'm not sure if someone has posted this but, i found widescan useless if you sub bst or rng to blu (but still works if you sub to old jobs), and friend of mine confirmed this with me

    anybody else also getting this? the widescan botton is avaliable but there's nothing shown on the mob list... is this supposed to be a bug? i'll be sending a bug report on POL about this before i go to bed tonight

    Well now i am Lv. 17 and i did not get healing breeze yet... i have tried since Lv 15 killing nothing but Dhamels for 2 Lvs in Tahronghi(sp) and i killed each dhamel after they use healing breeze... then 20 mins before i log for work i invite a blu friend who is lv.14 and gets it off the second dhamel. This is the first time i have had a problem learning an ability... Maybe there is something different to do to learn non-offensive moves?... At this point i dont know for sure but i am open to suggestion....just nothing to outrageous or stupid like people on my server(fenrir) have suggested... example of this stupidy: you have to be 4 levels above whatever you are fighting and kill the mob with the corresponding weakness in the beast weakness chart... so anything just nothing to far fetched please

    I've been getting spells after like 3-4 kills after they do the move, but I went from 14-16 trying to get healing breeze. Could be just bad luck for the both of us?

    edit question:
    I'm trying to get poison breath but it doesn't seem to be working off crawlers (1 per family type I guess), has anyone tried shadow dragons or hounds or something else to get it from?

    Bluemage doesnt get any job traits by default. Your job traits are defined by the blue magic you set. For example

    Setting Wild Oats and Sprout Smack gives the Job Trait Beast Killer
    Setting Sheep Song and Healing Breeze gives the job trait Auto Regen

    Safe bet seeing as AF quests are in the game yet for BLU COR and PUP.

    Late post

    To the person saying you can't kill mobs 20+ higher lvls than and learn the ability "Foot Kick" was the example, that is not true.

    I wasn't sure where to find HL cardinals since I got 26 BLU and had to get Bluegeon(or however it's spelt^^) and was in PT with a lvl 75 rdm that killed the lvl 44ish Cardinals(10 of cards) for me until I got the ability. I didn't even get exp.
    __________________________________________________ ________
    A friend of mine told me he also has SS's of him learning moves on "Too Weak" mobs. Has anyone else tried this? I have all my spells so wasn't able to give it a shot.
    __________________________________________________ ________

    Oh someone also mentioned killing the mob right after it uses WS increases chance of getting the spell. I have gotten this same luck, but it was always while fighting EP mobs. Maybe you are able to learn moves off EP mobs faster.
    __________________________________________________ _________

    Pretty much late post for everything @@ but... also I would use MND/MP gear for low LVL blu. MND helps pollen if stacked, and MP is a must.

    INT MND CHR doesn't help Cocoon at all though, if anyone uses BLU to tank at low lvl.
    __________________________________________________ __________

    Also, with random tests - Apollo staff helps Healing Breeze / Pollon and the right elemental staffs help Elemental Magic DMG spells.

    So possible rolls for BLU's that will take advantage of elemental staffs will be melee'ing to SC with others in PT > using staffs to MB magic spells.

    Sitting back and using Debuff spells > MB'ing with Elemental staffs and healing the pt.

    Someone also said TP helps w/o Chain Infinity, but plz listen to the person that corrected him a few posts after^^
    __________________________________________________ __________

    And for usefull sj's... I don't recommend /war pre 30 unless you are the tank or solo'ing.

    go with /whm

    In pt if I'm not tanking I always go SJ whm for added MP. I don't think I will melee much if I'm not tanking until I get chain infinity.

    If people really want to melee pre 30 use DRG sj for + atk trait!

    I doubt this. SE says the accuracy of Blue Spells depends on the main hand weapon. Since Blu doesn't have staff I can't imagine wearing a staff for Blue nukes being good.

    as for Apollo helping Healing Breeze I call BS because Healing Breeze is wind based.

    Are you sure that doesn't only apply to the physical spells? I'm curious to know if I'm sitting on all these HQ elemental staves for no reason.
