    I do the same, but the difference between doing 15k damage and 20k damage isn't worth the time it would take me to make 7 affinity staves. It was a different story when I used to solo things and having the best gear meant the difference between chain 3 and chain 6.

    BLM can stun everything in VW with a NQ thunder staff, capped skill, and AF3+2.

    lol, you don't even need AF3+2. I do BLM to Voidwatch on my V.cloak mule and all it costs me is a little damage.

    The difference between a Black Mage that lotted the things that dropped from monsters he was killing anyway and a dedicated Black Mage is Magian Affinity Staves and +2 Relic. I don't know any dedicated Black Mages, but I can look at the gear and tell you the amount of effort it requires to obtain way exceeds its usefulness.

    I guess it's just different circles. I know a few dedicated BLM's in my LS, and they are usually the ones I can count on more to proc/stun. These are also the ones that will get Meteor first in our shell because they mainlot the job. While total nuke damage in VW may not matter as much when the strategy for most monsters is just proc/zerg, I expect SE to add more content like Legion (perhaps revamped Ein/Limbus) that will reward well-geared BLMs.
