Basics
Unlocking Blue Mage requires having a level 50 job and completing the quest The Ultimate Weapon. It is an advanced limited job, and as such cannot join Duty Roulette, PVP, or play through the main scenario quests.
Unlike other jobs, Blue Mage does not learn abilities via leveling up or through quests. Instead, you or your party must defeat enemies after they have used certain abilities. If you are alive at the death of the mob, you have a chance of learning these abilities. The chance of learning the ability depends on the difficulty rank of the ability itself.
To choose which abilities to use in battle, you must open the Blue Magic Spellbook, and choose from those you have learnt, much like setting role actions. You can have a maximum of 24 abilities chosen, and can save up to five different skillsets. Note that switching between skillsets will not change your hotbars.
Upon completion of the first quest you will be rewarded with a True Blue (lv1) equipment set (see below in Armor).
Quests
These are Blue Mage's job quests. They can be undertaken after you reach certain levels on your Blue Mage and learning certain abilities. The first listed quest unlocks the job itself.
| Level | Ability Requirement | Quest |
|---|---|---|

*The second lv50 quest does not require an ability, but does require the completion of Masked Carnivale level 25. The Carnivale is unlocked at the completion of the first lv50 quest.
Learnables
Note that as a limited job, Blue Mage cannot use PVP abilities or limit breaks.
