Why must I always get stuck with Locke? Sighs.

At least we got Shadow and a new guy to makes things better.

Strago is your blue mage with his Lore ability. Blue magic has always been a neat idea but poorly executed in pretty much all games that have them. It is like, I can learn monster spells? Cool! But, only monster abilities on this narrow list here. What makes it worse is you have no idea what that list is unless you look at a walkthrough or strategy guide. If you must limit the blue magic list, the game really needs to provide a way to tell you that 'hey this monster has a spell you can learn'. Maybe like some grey text added to your list after you fight a certain monster letting you know you might be able to learn something from it. Then you would at least know to come back to that monster and fight it again.

Unfortunately even if we added that to this game, Lore spells are just not that good overall. Regular magic is generally more versatile and cost effective than Lore in almost all cases. Why worry about learning White Wind (a spell that can only be learned at the end of the game) when you can just use the Cure spells? Why use Lvl 4 Flare when Meteor does more damage and has no requirement? Its hard to justify hunting for these spells when magic can do most of the same effects and better.
