Yeah, SE, apparently this is intentional, which is absolutely nonsensical. BLM is put to a quite significant disadvantage because it doesn't have access to Essence of the Ordained. Having the extra healing capability (I like having Cure I/II with me) in addition to a damage increase would be VERY useful for all content. It makes SMN/RDM even more overpowered than they already are in this type of content in comparison to BLM, which is still the worst out of the 3 even if BLM got access to this essence.
Every single part of this essence is an inexcusable reason for BLM to not have access to it.
1. Healing potency can BLM get with Essence of the Savior. It doesn't matter that BLM has no healing skills, we have access to all the Lost Cures.
2. MP increase is similar to how the MP cost reduction for Wisdom of the Elder in Eureka worked.
3. There's a damage increase, and since SMN/RDM has access to this essence it makes absolutely no sense for BLM to be excluded.
And a reason for SMN/RDM to have their access revoked is that Wisdom of the Ordained in Eureka was ONLY accessible to healers.
