Limited Jobs
Blue mage is known as a limited job. 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 70.
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
Squadron Missions
Deep Dungeons
PvP, including duels
Stone, Sky, Sea
Hall of the Novice

Blue mages gain greater experience from battling enemies in the open world than other jobs do.
Blue mage cannot be used to progress through the main scenario.
Retainers cannot be assigned the blue mage job.

Disciples of the Hand

"An empty hand is akin to an empty heart -- ever does it long for a companion."
- former Leatherworkers' Guild guildmaster, Saiverin Vaireloque

For crafters, the art of synthesis is at the very core of their way of life, driving their industry. They employ a veritable arsenal of tools in working
everything from the most delicate cloth to the most resilient metal. Through their labors, the traditions of Eorzea are kept alive, and her culture
preserved.

Disciples of the Land

"Gladiators haven't a care whence steel comes, nor archers timber. 'Tis no concern of ours -- so long as their gil is good."
- esteemed naturalist Pilfa Dalfa, in his cups

These harvesters of nature's bounty utilize an array of tools in their work with all forms of plants and minerals. Their trade encompasses knowledge of
all of Hydaelyn's natural resources, be it in a cultivated garden or the great outdoors. As a cornerstone of Eorzea's economy, their impact on her
inhabitants can hardly be overstated.
