Ff14 can blue mage do dungeons

Q: What can Blue Mages not do?

In-game the Blue Mage is considered a Limited Job. This is not for no reason, as Blue Mages cant queue for content like other jobs can, they cant access competitive PvP modes, they cant go higher than level 70, and they cant progress the Main Story Quest.

How do you do dungeons with blu mage?
I'm getting frustrated. I'm at level 25 and I can't do any dungeons at all. I know the job is limited but everyone else seems to be getting the dungeon spells. Needs some help Please.

You have to find other people who want to party with you manually. It's a ... questionable design choice.

You must learn "1000 needles" first because you will never do enough damage to enemies and boss with just the water skill.
And learn enough skills (10) to get White Wind from the NPC near Martyn. It will help you heal if needed.
And if you can, set up parties because the more, the funnier
(and you have more chances to get the skill than alone)

Although the first part is accurate, more blu mages = more fun!
The second part isn't, the mobs have a set % chance to learn the spell, and the number of blue mages makes no difference.

I read everywhere that the % chance is for each blue mage in the team and not on the mob itself ? Is that wrong ?

Yes but as long as one blue mage learns the spell everyone else will learn it.

That's why I don't understand what's the truth here. If there's such thing as "as long as one blue mage learns the spell everyone else will learn it" that means that each blue mage has the % chance to learn the skill. So it's not a % chance for the party.
Ah, my head... :'D

say learning a spell was 20% chance i does not matter how many blus are in the party that 20% chance is fixed it is just that every blu in the party learns that spell at the same time. It is a party roll for that spell not an individual

It's a roll from the mob if it has used a blue skill given to the initiating party. It's one roll. It's a % the mob gives out regardless of the party size.

Can Blue Mages do dungeons?

Instead they need to make a party manually using Party Finder and travel to the duty's entrance. BLU also can't engage with the PvP system, Deep Dungeons or special areas like Eureka and the Bozjan Southern Front. In fact, you can't even use them to progress the Main Story Quest.

Can Blue Mage solo level 70 dungeons?

BLU Mage can solo level 70 dungeons, yes. There are occasionally some tricky parts, but I'm confident that BLU can clear every dungeon alone. BLU can stomp level 70 dungeons into the dust with Basic Instinct.
