BLM burst conflag rotation

The reason there's long and short is that the conflag is constantly in flux looking at waxen flesh.

When you soak one in the hot tub, the debuff falls off and the Conflag adjusts to that. When you don't have one to soak, it's the 4 stack duration.



What this means is that at certain DPS thresholds the conflags will be opposite.

What you want to be looking for is the pattern of conflag/fireball each time, not "burn CDs on even."

I'm confused, allow me to confirm the following with ya.

We always get hit by Fireball first, never once we got conflag first. Based on that what I arrived to is:

1- Stacks don't start until the First Conflag lands.

2- The more players/pets get hit by fireball the more stacks she gain, ergo shorter conflag.

This lead us to think, even is always shorter and odd is longer.

For our group, I personally don't use RS, But for second and fourth conflag, which are the short DPS burst ones. Anyway, when I see the Fireball before the second and fourth Conflag, (usually I'll be at the end of my rotation by then) but I'll stop my rotation and do B3 for UI3, then F3 for AF3, by then the 2nd/4th conflag should have popped I switch and start spamming Fire 1's. If your short DPS then throw in raging strikes.

You will always get hit by Fireball first, but if you transition at a weird time with Death Sentence, it will be delayed by ~15s or so(as opposed to ~5s after transition). This results in the first conflag not having a fireball.

Again, plan for the mechanic, not an "even" conflag.

Two people in the hot tub->Slow.
One person in the hot tub->Fast.
