Obviously when you mix black and white magic you make a nuclear bomb *logic*

Dancer regular attacks are hands down the flashiest of the bunch. I never had an issue before but even with just my own skills turned on it can be hard to see anything when you are in a pack doing aoes.
Black Mage I think has the most obnoxious and flashy lb3 tho. That meteor is much worse than rdm lazers imo
Smn is pretty nice, weakest looking lb3 of the 3 but you have painflare, bahamut's ahk morn, and phoenix's revelation which look and feel really strong.
I'd say Dark knight is flashy especially when you do the opener properly, so much darkness and chaos is going on
Ninja is considerably more flashy now than it has been previously. A substantial amount of time is spent casting Ninjutsu and using Ninki abilities now. You've got lightning, swirling flames, water eruptions, ice shurikens, rumbling earth, Bahvacakra, a fire spewing toad, shadow clones, etc. The animations are just more focused and quickly executed than most, so they aren't blinding.
Overall I would say Black Mage is king for flashiness, but that's due to its role. It has to over-the-top explosions to match its heavy hitting playstyle.
I don't personally think that Red Mage is all that impressive as far as this is concerned. Many of the spells are quick, basic animations.
It used to be Paladin, but they removed flash. Guess too many false police reports.
Summoner has the flashiest finishers (Quite literally), I mean you're literally summoning demi-bahamut and having him laser the boss and the resulting attack results in a huge column of light that completely consumes smaller bosses, same with deathflare. (Lore people don't jump down my throat for not knowing exactly what kind of attack it is)
Astrologian and Dancer are pretty flashy. Haven't seen the red mage LB3. Now I want to!
