I think the Berserker would be genuinely impossible, at least if you include the Omniscient fight. I know he bypasses that fight with non-magical Jobs for the sake of not pointlessly sitting around for literal hours waiting for Omniscient's massive MP pool to drain, but in the case of Berserker even that wouldn't even be an option.
You might be able to cheese it with Mage Mashers, since they have the chance to cast Silence, but I don't know off the top of my head if Omniscient is immune to Silence or not. I also wouldn't want to run the numbers on the luck you'd need to keep it silenced the entire fight.
Okay. Confusing enemies to get Blue Magic is supposed to work, but since you played the PR version before it got patched (that added boost etc.) said quirk was bugged, and Confused enemies always casted the blue spells on themself. The recent patch should fix said bug.
@@veghesther3204 when I was a kid playing on an untranslated rom I managed to get white wind using the bard's charm song on the Lonkan ship. Is charm different than confuse?
This is the joy of blue mage. Even in FF14, it's either completely underwhelming, Horrifically unbalanced, and always Arcane and confusing. But I love it. It's my favorite class.
I feel the pain of not being able to get some blue magic. Im doing a 4 job playthrough. Rolled blue mage, red mage, ranger,l and samurai. I can confirm that at least white wind and transfusion can be obtained by the confuse spell in the GBA version of the game.
Let me introduce you to the GBA Player. Gba games on the big screen. Although you can probably do the same thing with a GBA operator, a laptop and screen casting or hdmi @@MatthewMacrow
When I played FF5 for this first time back when it came out for the GBA I actually knew what Blue Mage did because of FF7 and the enemy skill materia. But actually finding the spells and such was a different story, lol. I remember trying Blue Mage out and getting Goblin Punch and Aero and that was about it. I wish they had more in game ways to find out if a monster had a blue magic spell or not.
This series is so cool. Really enjoying it, as someone who also does FF5 challenge runs. You probably already know, but you can change your weapon and shield slots in-battle. I think that may have helped in a couple spots for the Black Mage run. Also, you can indeed learn Whitewind from a confused enemy, but it's not in the script for the Metamoph's version of Enchanted Fan. Regular Enchanted Fan has it, though, and can be encountered again in the Sunken Tower. You also can get Mighty Guard from a confused Stingray. You just had bad luck. Version I run is Pixel Remaster as well, btw.
The Charm spell on Vampire (the Blue Mage job from Bravely Defauly) DOES actually make enemies use their helpgul abilties on you. I am very thankful for that. Also confusion can work as well
I love these vids. Backlog Buster is the John Madden of challenge videos, lol. Just need to work in drawing circles around something, with some squiggly lines, and some onomatopoeia's like Thwak, snork, thunk, Zok, & Zorp. Dancer is going to be interesting. Specially once Krile joins the party. Every time she dances there is a chance Steven Segal jumps (what? lol. I meant waddles) out of a bush and tries to make her his new Girlfriend.
I know a lot of these are all already recorded, but I really think you should get the other classes as early as you get the first crystal, just to showcase more of it whenever possible instead of freelancer. That said, loving the series! Keep 'em coming!
First time viewer. Decent video overall. 🤙 There's no question, the Blue Mage is cracked. The class has the tools for almost any situation, and "Death By Math" is usually good for a laugh, especially against NED/TED at the end of the game. The only class that I had that much fun with was the Chemist (of whom I named my Bartz/Butz "W. White", for obvious reasons). Tempting Tango from the Dancing Dagger can be such a headache to use at times. You really need a White Mage in your party in order to fully take advantage of the Confuse ability from the dagger. That being said, the Blue Mage can pretty much nuke any boss, to include the two Superbosses (Omega/Shinryu). Omega is a bit of a pain though because you can't really kill him without 1000 Needles/Blowfish. Although I know you didn't choose to grind at Black Flame Island (just north of Cresent Island), one thing that I found to be helpful in W1 was grinding for Flame Rings in Istory. Being able to use Flamethrower/Emission to heal yourself came in clutch a few times prior to getting White Wind in Ronka/Lonka Ruins. Speaking of grinding for stuff, I also opted to grind for Frost Rods and Angel Rings for Gilgame (Gil Turtle) in W2. Using Tempting Tango (or Mediator/Beastmaster's !Control command) on Poison Eagles (up in Drakenvale) for Float really helped out against Gil Turtle. My only minor complaint about the video? No references to the "Blue Man Group" musical act. 🙃 😅 (Ah well, can't win'em all.)
When it comes to L2 Old and Time Slip, the "Window Cancellation Trick" is seriously one of the best ways to abuse Death By Math. The timing of it can be tricky at times, though.
@@leargamma4912 If you use blackshock to half an enemies level an odd number rounds down, so Atomos goes to level 20 and then level 5 death can kill him.
It's not really cheating to use the control command if it means getting the full experience out of the blue mage class. Just like it's fine to smash rods if you can
Crazy how differently you seem to act compared to back then. You certainly seem to show out a lot more emotion compared to back then. Gotta hand it to ya, did a rather swell job on this one.
Blue Mage is really cool and all, but the fact that you basically need a guide (or an obscene amount of time and patience) to find all the blue magic kind of spoils the fun. I really wish there was something included in the game to guide you where and how to get each spell.
I don’t mean this in a negative way, but you have a voice for ASMR. Your mic / production are so soothing I fell asleep to this but woke up and subbed. This isn’t a /s. I subbed because I’d love more chill challenge strat videos to fall asleep to. Could be a blessing in disguise
My workflow is 1. Beat the Game 2. Rewatch my Footage while writing the first draft of the script 3. Go over the script llike 4 times 4. Record VO 5. Cut VO while inserting any memes/graphics i want 6. Align footage that syncs up with what I'm talkling about 7. Final check and render.
I have the pixel remasters on pc and all updated, and they all still have that scrolling ficker and tear thing on both my pcs.. ive done all the tricks and fixes and even the fps mod for them with no luck.. I just can't unsee it, and it drives me bannanas 😢
Using Beastmaster to get the rest of the blue magic spells is honestly a worthy time to break the rules. What's the point in doing a blue mage only run if you can't use all the cool blue mage spells?
Sad that PR nerfed the hell out of confuse so you can't get certain enemy spells. At least as an alternative for healing you could use Flamethrower with a Flame Shield + Flame Rod. #DeathByMath
I'm surprised you didn't fight Shinryu since Blue Mage kind of has the best shot of doing it. Dark Spark does work... lol (at your level it would be around ~9%)
I wonder if blacklog will make a extra run with freelancer, where they can only equip abilitys from theirs respective crystal. Would be a nice run and bonus this make sense to me beacuse galuf need re learn his skill after Earth crystal was shattered because in this very moment he recover his memory as a former earth crystal warrior and the others are the news members that learn new skill as soon they get some pieces from wind, water and fire crystals😂 Edit: grammar . Sorry im brazillian and dont write in others idiom with frequency . Edit2: and krille recivie everything immediately because..... nepotism. Bartzs father hate the monarchy and that why he wanted bartz to follow the wind😂😂😂
I swear this video was already uploaded at some point previously. Like i know that you'll use beastmaster to be able to actually get spells despite the fact that i am typing this before watching the video
Its bit troublesome IMO. Learn most blue mage spells requires charm or controll enemy. But luckily L 2, 3, 4, 5 magic could be learn without. I think its not that hardest possible single job challenge. I can just imagine how hard is beat game Dancer only. Berserkker only might be even impossible. Cannot controlls nothing.
I mean, its *very* easy to lie on a youtube video. You just cut around the parts where you get control and use it to learn the spell. I could've easily edited this video to make it look like my dancing dagger-tempting tango strategy worked. I believe in trying to be as honest as possible though so I'll tell the truth even if its not my desired outcome.
I love blue mage so I might've seen that video too. If it's what I was thinking, I think they were upfront about leveling up Beastmaster on one character just to learn control and then continuing with the challenge with them all as Blue Mage after learning that skill, since it's the *only* way to get very specific skills
@mindlessmeat4055 PC version of Pixel Remaster before January 2024 patch (that added gil/exp boost, pixel font, etc.) had a lot bugs. One of the bug was confused enemies would always cast Blue spells on themself. Said quirk works on other versions of the game.
I would have preffered if you wouldnt use the lamp and breaking rods, since that isnt an ability exclusive to a spefic job and did make some parts of this challenge similiar to what you did in the black mage one. You could techically go as far as banning the use off items in out right when in battle, but I already know that would make jobs with access to healing otherwise a pain.
It's funny watching a bunch of Four Job Fiestas with Blue Mage on the older releases of FFV and they all used confusion to get all the spells they needed. Eh, what can you do. If I was playing this run I probably would have resorted to the Beastmaster faster instead of dealing with the game's nonsense.
Gonna throw this out here, since I've seen like 3-4 of these now. Not sure why you didn't run a mod to have the job you want/need the WHOLE run. Since Freelancer is the only one that can see the whole game naturally.
I know you can say that you could have easily beat the game before going for control, and I'm sure you could, but I gotta say it probably would have been more interesting to see your experience with Neo-Exdeath without Mighty Guard and White Wind.

Thanks for watching Backlog Buster, and special thanks to my friends for meme ideas.
The dip into beastmaster to grab cool and powerful spells to show off in a single job challenge is neat and better than some silly technicality anyway
I agree. I view these as job showcases as much as a challenge. Just a bit of a shame Blue Mage needs Beastmaster to get the fully realized spell pool.
"So if I find a dragon, enrage him, and manage to survive being set aflame somehow... I could then breathe fire, too?"

All white mage challenges is probably gonna be the most painful part of this series. That or Berserker when you get to it.
Its kinda funny because white mage is one of the most overpowered classes in the game, but the second you use four of them that changes for the worse
I think the Berserker would be genuinely impossible, at least if you include the Omniscient fight. I know he bypasses that fight with non-magical Jobs for the sake of not pointlessly sitting around for literal hours waiting for Omniscient's massive MP pool to drain, but in the case of Berserker even that wouldn't even be an option.

Big if true for future challengers. My run will forever be tarnished.
@BacklogBuster Yeah, people on FF5 Fiesta server have confirmed to be the case.
I like that you went and got control, once it was clear that it was doable anyway.
Young me when I tried blue mage "This is dumb"
Young me when I understood blue mage " Oh... oh this is BUSTED!"
This is the joy of blue mage. Even in FF14, it's either completely underwhelming, Horrifically unbalanced, and always Arcane and confusing. But I love it. It's my favorite class.
I'm just glad to see I'm not the only one here who hears that word in "Kiss From a Rose" as "grave" instead of "grey."
I love blue magic in any ff game. I will enjoy this!
It's a shame it's such a pain to deal with in XIV. Still, doing Savage Alexander with all blue mages was awesome.
Never been to a vid so fast. These FF5 runs are good for my soul, thanks Wes.
I feel the pain of not being able to get some blue magic. Im doing a 4 job playthrough. Rolled blue mage, red mage, ranger,l and samurai.
I can confirm that at least white wind and transfusion can be obtained by the confuse spell in the GBA version of the game.
Why would you play a version that isn't GBA?

Keep doing your thing man
Loving the series so far. FFV has always been one of my favorites. Looking forward to seeing Summoner!
31:13 Yes! So glad you bent the rules a little to control. White wind and big guard are just too good to leave behind on a Blue Mage run.

Yeah in later games scan lets you know if an enemy has blue magic, should've done that for this one.
That moment I heard you say "'cause it beefs up my goblin punch", I felt a kindred spirit. That chaotic energy, never lose it.
Huhhh i always thought you could one shot Purobolos with Aqua Rake... Seriously this game has so many secret ways to cheese bosses, its soooooo fun.
I'm so glad you knew about making Azulmagia blow himself up.

What a great video series. I hope your channel thrives dude ❤
This series is actually fun to watch.
Blue Magic is my favorite thing in all RPGS and its debut in FF5 is phenomenal
Before watching I assume this will be easy. The more you know about ff5 really helps this class compared to going blind.

Great series I'm looking forward to seeing how to tackle the later jobs.
