Tch. Vill..no.

Caster Blue Mages (For the remainder of this post will be refereed to as U Mages) can go a few directions. This mostly depends on what you as the mage are focussing on. Treat U Mage's sort of as bloodlineless sorcerers. Pick a general theme, and speak with your DM about it.

So now we must think, are you a nuker of the party? Are you more of a battle magician, applying buffs to your allies? Are you a hexer, focusing on debuffing the enemy? Are you the healer providing a second chance to your allies fray?

If you are a hexer, I recommend Spell Focus - Enfeebling. As that helps you as a debuffing blue mage tremendously.

If you are the nuker of the group, non metamagic feats you might want to consider include: Throw Anything, Craft (Insert item type here) Shot on the run and weapon finesse. (For those out of mp moments)

Regardless, Extra MP while it is always beneficial, isn't the greatest choice on a U Mage, as U Mage's MP pool is fine as it is.

For the explanation for Throw Anything, As A U Mage, part of your job is versatility. While it isn't an optimal feat by any stretch, you'd be amazed to find how often that splash weapon bonus can apply to a mage. Plus it allows for some insane combo's witho your party. Remember, speak to your DM, and try to find creative uses for your magic, rather than just be a "pure" damage caster. You are a U mage, not a B.Mage. Your job is to be an empty vessel.

You are empty, yet you are infinite. Now go forth, and become the world my student.

"The life of a Blue Mage is one of agony, and ecstasy. The ability to harness the destruction that mauled you, is like none other." - TFM, Blue Mage Extraordinaire of FFd20
