Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

Lethargy, technically Blizzard 1 if you need it I guess. Bind/Sleep don't work, sorry.

Just have SCH use Miasma on everything if they're getting too far for you guys.

Depends on what you got. My BiS has Eso Chest, Boots, Ring and Bracelet so I'd spend them on Bracelet or Boots but the only none 210 piece I have is pants so.

Only spells are Lethargy and Blizzard 1. I use B1 for my filler move there over T1 because there's no way an add is gonna live more than 6 seconds anyways. I do B1 the Limb on last phase all the time because it's more reliable than Miasma II miss from Scholar / Stone miss from WHM.

Whats a good BLM parse going into A4S final phase for those already there ? I cant seem to go over 1250 :X

Guys, should we use Marron glace as the best dps food or do you guys suggest anything else?

Creme Brulee if you don't need the accuracy and can reach the SSPD cap on the food, Marron glace if you need the accuracy.

Love you all <3 Thanks for your help guys :)

Thank you! You are very helpfull indeed.
Would you mind telling me wich is the accuracy/spell speed cap?

I dont really understand how accuracy works in FFXIV as well. Back in my wow time, we had to have "hit" rating so our spells dont miss. Here I never noticed a miss message.

Thx in advance.

I can answer for you, 540 for A4S. 530 for A3S. I don't know the 2 other turns but they are pretty low. You need to hit a certain cap to hit the boss 100% of the time so it's a stat that you need more over time over a static 7,.5% Hit Rating like WoW. WoW is too simple ~.~

Just throwing this in here. A2S is around 520 and A1S is like 500. Extremely low compared to melee and tanks. Especially when you compare it to coil. Throughout coil, casters were around 20 accuracy below melee, and around 40 behind tanks. Now it's closer to 80 and 100 respectively.

I guess this is related to the need of healers to contribute to DPS, so they had the chance to close the gap for them in this expansion.
