My solution is to get rid of the timing restrictions on SC/MB. If 2 DD's WS back to back or 30 seconds apart, it should still make a SC, if a mage tries to MB 1 second after SC closes, or 30 seconds after it should still proc MB. This way SC/MB would almost be automatic given the right WS's are used to make a SC, and the right spell hits to make a MB. Generally in zerg setups people will just be spamming anyway, so why not just let those WS's make SC's for extra damage, and why not let the mage's have the freedom to cast their MB proc spell anytime after the SC has hit as long as a new SC doesnt overrule it. The DD's would be zerging, while the mages nuke anyway, why not make it so that if they happen to line up correctly that you get the extra damage from it, if not, meh no biggie they were spamming anyway regardless. This way people who want to use SC/MB would have an easier time setting it up and implementing it, while the Zerg crowd would only take advantage of the damage benefits if they stumble on the skillchain while tearing through ws's.

You know Magic bursting isn't hard. Spells like thunder 5 and bliz 5 take what, 5 seconds with proper gear? Legion is the only thing I can think of that would even matter to use MB. And in those situations, DD aren't zerging. So just ask the sams to help you setup, I'll gladly open or close to help setup a MB, and so will many other people if it means we aren't failing content lol.

I'm going to go on an extreme here, and suggest that essentially, performing a Fusion SC would permanently give a bonus to Fire and Light damage for the remainder of the fight?

I think that the amount of time between WSs could be adjusted (perhaps), and that the duration of a Magic Burst window be extended, but certainly not for anything beyond 10-12 seconds. Otherwise, you're gonna have each BLM in a group single-handedly double-MBing Thunaja, Firaja, etc.... no, that'd be a little -too- much.

On the other hand, it would be interesting if new SCs (with these extended weakness times) required multiple SCs without an interim SC.
For example: Instead of WS1 -> WS2 (SC Lv1) -> WS3 (SC Lv2)
Or: WS1 -> WS2 (SC Lv2)
You could have: WS1 -> WS2 (Special Effect trigger without a SC) -> WS3 (SC Lv3 only if previous trigger is initated)
Or: You could require a certain SC to proc in order to remove a physica/magical barrier effect....

This however, complicates the DD coordination greatly, and with the current mechanics in place, zerg will continue to surpass SC/MB relevance.

You'd need some -serious- overhaul to SCs to change that.
