Blue Mage Job Traits  

Blue Mage works unlike any other job in terms of how Job Traits are assigned. Instead of obtaining set Job Traits through the process of leveling up, a Blue Mage must equip certain combinations of spells in order to gain access to many different possible Job Traits. This makes Blue Mage an infinitely customizable job depending on play style and party role.
