{{MH2|Introduction}}
{{Quotation|[https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/jobguide/bluemage FinalFantasyXIV.com Blue Mage]|A so-called mage of rather questionable character claims to have mastered an outlandish form of spellcasting that resembles neither black nor white magic during his voyage to the New World. Allegedly, anyone who purchases one of his soul crystals can learn to mimic the aetherial magicks of wild creatures. But can he be trusted, or is he merely a con artist looking to make a quick gil?
}}

[[Blue Mage]] is a [[Limited Job]].

__TOC__
== General information ==
Harnessing the power of blue magic, players can learn to mimic the abilities of wild beasts with this new job.

=== Guild ===

=== Unlock ===
*Complete the [[quest]]: [[Out of the Blue]]
*Requirement: Level 50 Disciple of War or Magic
*Starting NPC: [[Zealous Yellowjacket]] in [[Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks]] (X:10.0 Y:11.0)
*Prerequisite Quest: Players must first complete the [[Main Scenario Quest]] [[The Ultimate Weapon]].
=== Equipment ===
'''[[Canes (Blue Mage)]]'''

'''[[Blue Mage Only Armor Sets]]'''

And other armor and accessories available to Ranged Magic DPS. However, unlike other jobs, a blue mage's weapons do not have any main attributes that enhance their base stats. Instead blue mages will be able to output higher magic damage than other jobs by stacking up on intelligence points, so it'll be important to prepare your gear and accessories with this in mind.

==Limited Jobs==
Blue mage is the first of several planned [[Limited Jobs]] in FINAL FANTASY XIV. As such, there are several key points that distinguish it from other [[jobs]].

Blue mage functions independently of other [[classes]] and jobs, starting at level 1 with a maximum level of 50.

When playing as a blue mage, it is possible to participate in [[duties]] with other players in preformed or undersized parties. However, the following duties will remain inaccessible:
*[[Duty Roulettes]]
*[[The Forbidden Land, Eureka]]
**It is not possible to change to blue mage after entering the instance.
*[[The Diadem]]
**It is not possible to change to blue mage after entering the instance.
*[[Squadron Missions]]
*[[Deep Dungeons]]
*[[PvP]], including [[duels]]
**It is possible, however, to enter [[the Wolves' Den]] as a blue mage.
*[[Stone, Sky, Sea]]
*[[Hall of the Novice]]

Blue mages gain greater [[experience]] from battling [[enemies]] in the open world than other jobs do.
*No bonuses are granted to experience gained from [[FATE]] or [[guildleve]] enemies.

Blue mage cannot be used to progress through the [[main scenario]].

[[Retainers]] cannot be assigned the blue mage job.

==Actions Mechanics==
===Active Actions===
[[File:blue mage active actions1.png|400px]]

Before [[#Learning Spells|spells]] can be set to your hotbar, they must first be selected as active actions. You can have up to 24 active actions at any given time.
* Active actions cannot be changed during combat or during certain duties.

===Active Sets===
Active actions can also be saved together as a set. Up to five active sets can be saved.
* The presently selected active set will not affect the layout of your hotbar.

==Learning Spells==
{{see also|Blue Mage Spells Learning Guide}}
Rather than gaining new actions by increasing in level, blue mages learn them from enemies. In order to do so, you must first witness an enemy perform a special attack in battle. Once it is defeated, you have a chance of acquiring the ability. You do not have to be hit by that spell. After defeating the enemy, you have a chance of learning that spell. The chance is determined by the rank of the spell. ★ is the easiest to learn while ★★★★★ is the hardest.
* You don't need to be hit by the spell, only see it to be casted.
* If you're dead when is enemy is defeated, you MIGHT have the possibility to learn the spell, but you have to see it being performed.
* If one person in a party leans the spell, everyone in the party will also learn it.
* Job level has no influence on when an action can be learned. There is no minimum level to learn a spell unless it is inside a [[duty]]. Sync or unsync has not impact on chance of learning.

===[[Blue Magic Spellbook]]===
[[File:blue magic spellbook2.png|350px|right]]
All spells you have learned are recorded in the [[Blue Magic Spellbook]]. The book also contains hints on how to acquire other spells.

===Whalaqee Totems===
Certain [[blue magic spells]] can be acquired via [[Whalaqee Totems]].

To obtain these items, complete the [[blue mage quest]] [[Blue Leading the Blue]] and certain [[achievements]], then speak to [[Wayward Gaheel Ja]] in [[Ul'dah - Steps of Thal]] (X:12.5 Y:12.9).

Ican: /* Job chart */

{{TOCRIGHT}}
==Introduction==
'''Jobs''' are an extension of their base [[class]]es, and require a [[Soul Crystal]] to activate. Each job acquires additional role-specific actions based on the job's role in group content (Tank, DPS, or Healer). With the release of [[Stormblood]], players are no longer required to level a secondary class and can advance to their respective job at level 30.
Jobs added with expansions do not have a base [[class]] and receive their [[Soul Crystal]] as soon as they are unlocked. They also start out at higher base levels.

== Job chart ==
This list includes all jobs with their base (level 1-30) classes. Eight jobs can only be obtained by purchasing ''[[Heavensward]]'' ([[Dark Knight]], [[Astrologian]], [[Machinist]] and [[Blue Mage]]), ''[[Stormblood]]'' ([[Samurai]], [[Red Mage]]) and ''[[Shadowbringers]]'' ([[Gunbreaker]] and [[Dancer]]).

HW requires ''[[Heavensward]]''. 
SB requires ''[[Stormblood]]''. 
ShB requires ''[[Shadowbringers]]''.

(*) Although Rogue/Ninja has no ''specific'' prerequisites, it is not available as a starting class, so you must first follow the same steps as acquiring any other class: unlock class-changing (level 10) and gain access to [[Limsa Lominsa]] (level 15, unless you started there).

'''Note:''' You can level all [[class]]es and jobs on a single character.

== Overview ==
[[File:FFXIV ARR Jobs.jpg|Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn jobs.|thumb]]Jobs have specialized abilities aimed to perform specific roles in a group setting. Jobs are at the same level as their corresponding classes and can be thought of as specialized modes of the base classes. There are ten jobs in A Realm Reborn (2.0): Warrior, Paladin, Monk, Ninja (2.4), Dragoon, Bard, White Mage, Black Mage, Summoner and Scholar. Heavensward (3.0) added three new jobs: Dark Knight, Astrologian and Machinist. Stormblood (4.0) further added two more jobs: Samurai and Red Mage. Shadowbringers (5.0), like Stormblood, added two new jobs: Gunbreaker and Dancer. Unlocking a job awards its Soul Crystal, which is required to change from the player's current class to a more specialized job. Each job has its own crystal which can be equipped via the Armoury Chest.

Jobs have some unique features:

* Primary Class is the class that a job is tied to.
* To switch to a job, equip its Soul Crystal. Returning to a base class works similarly by leaving the crystal slot empty.
* Jobs possess all of the abilities and traits of the primary class and can select five additional actions shared among all jobs of that role.
* Before attaining level 60, Jobs borrow all of their Traits from their primary class. However, any Traits acquired from levels 61 to 70 are restricted to the job upon which they are received.
* Note that while most abilities are acquired through gaining levels, some are locked behind Class and Job Quests.
* Level is shared between job and primary class once that job is unlocked. For example, if you level a Summoner to 40, then swap over to its base class (Arcanist), the latter will also be at level 40. Both the primary class and its respective job will always be the same level, regardless of which you play as.
* Jobs released in Heavensward (3.0) – Dark Knight, Astrologian and Machinist – start from level 30 and do not require base classes. Instead, they begin with a full set of abilities of their own.
* Jobs released in Stormblood (4.0) – Samurai and Red Mage – start from level 50 and do not require base classes.
* Jobs released in Shadowbringers (5.0) – Gunbreaker and Dancer – begin from level 60 and do not require base classes.

== Jobs ==
=== [[Tank|Tanks]] ===
==== [[File:Paladin_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Paladin]] ====
Paladins are front-line specialists, sporting a veritable arsenal of defensive and supportive tools to protect both themselves and their allies. Paladin's also utilize MP to heal their comrades and to deal burst damage.

==== [[File:Warrior_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Warrior]] ====
Warriors are mighty front-liners wielding terrifying two-handed axes which are used to perform huge burst damage after filling their Beast Gauge. Unlike their tanking counterparts, Warriors forgo some mitigation abilities in exchange for a whopping health-pool and self-healing abilities.

==== [[File:Dark_Knight_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Dark Knight]] ====
Dark Knights strive to occupy the proverbial middle-ground between Warrior and Paladin, providing the player with a balanced offering of mitigation and damage-dealing tools, complemented by their skill with two-handed greatswords.

==== [[File:Gunbreaker_frame_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Gunbreaker]] ====
Gunbreakers blend solid damage, mitigation and utility into a straightforward playstyle. They possess consistent combos that generate Cartridges, which can be used to increase their damage further or to aim special abilities (such as shields or regen) at party-members.

=== [[Healer|Healers]] ===
==== [[File:Astrologian_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Astrologian]] ====
Astrologians are masters of fate that provide shields and regeneration to allies in a large area, and can also use Cards to provide damage buffs to fellow party members through use of their Star Globe.

==== [[File:Scholar_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Scholar]] ====
Scholars, accompanied by their faithful healing pets, pepper allies with powerful barriers whilst debilitating enemies with their devastating damage-over-time (DoT) effects.

==== [[File:White_Mage_icon.png|20px|top]] [[White Mage]] ====
White Mage is a straightforward healing class that forgoes utility to provide immense healing output and regeneration effects to their allies. In times of need, they can also blast their enemies with devastating elemental attacks.

=== [[DPS]] ===
==== [[File:Bard_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Bard]] ====
Bards are ranged damage dealers sporting mobility, utility, and a proc-based combat style that debilitates enemies through damage-over-time effects wrought by their bow and arrows. Through the power of song, they can also provide party-wide buffs and inspire their allies to greater feats of damage.

==== [[File:Black_Mage_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Black Mage]] ====
Black Mages resemble the classical elemental mage, trading defense and mobility for unmatched area spells. Their unique mechanics revolve around balancing Astral Fire and Umbral Ice to mitigate MP consumption while dealing massive damage with offensive fire, ice and lightning magicks.

==== [[File:Blue_Mage_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Blue Mage]] ====
Blue Mages learn skills by copying the abilities of their defeated enemies. They have access to a wide variety of spells, which make them more and more versatile and powerful as they learn. However, their status as a Limited Job restricts their access to content.

==== [[File:Dancer_frame_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Dancer]] ====
The Dancer is a highly-mobile job providing damage, utility and support capabilities to those around them while slicing their enemies with their vicious Chakra. Dancer's can also choose a party member as their Dance Partner, causing some of their skill's effects to activate on the selected player.

==== [[File:Dragoon_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Dragoon]] ====
Dragoons are famous for launching themselves across battlefields and decimating their foes using lance-based weapons, often bombarding enemies with vicious leaping attacks and positional combos.

==== [[File:Machinist_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Machinist]] ====
Machinists are gun-toting tinkerers that specialize in blasting foes in rapid succession, building up their Heat gauge, which is used to fuel their abilities further. They can also deploy an automaton to assist the player in combat temporarily.

==== [[File:Monk_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Monk]] ====
Monks are very agile combatants that deal impressive sustained single-target damage, darting across the battlefield to annihilate foes with lightning speed using their fist-based weapons and martial techniques.

==== [[File:Ninja_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Ninja]] ====
Ninja's are agile and elusive fighters that utilize [[ninjutsu]] and dual-daggers, slicing unsuspecting foes from the shadows in the blink of an eye. By using the right combination of mudras, they can also blast enemies with a variety of elemental attacks. Their ace-in-the-hole, [[Trick Attack]], also increases the damage a target takes from all sources.

==== [[File:Red_Mage_icon.jpg|20px|top]] [[Red Mage]] ====
The Red Mage is a versatile class capable of using both magic and weapon skills effectively. The class focuses on building and balancing white and black mana by casting magic, then expending them on their melee rapier skills to deal a finishing blow. In addition to dealing damage, Red Mages can learn healing magic and can even raise fallen party members.

==== [[File:Samurai_icon.jpg|20px|top]] [[Samurai]] ====
The Samurai uses a two-handed katana to deal out tremendous single-target damage. Their attacks are slow, methodical and deliberate, yet extremely potent, able to carve even the most stalwart opponent into mere ribbons.

==== [[File:Summoner_icon.png|20px|top]] [[Summoner]] ====
Summoners conjure one of three battle-pets into the fray and bombard their enemies with devastating damage-over-time effects, as well as other abilities performed through their use of [[aetherflow]]. Summoner, like Red Mage, is also one of the few DPS jobs that can resurrect fallen allies in combat.
