Thunder no longer stacks with itself, sucks :(

I have a question, from what I've seen, Ul'dah grand company offers accuracy on their gear at 50 and Gridania offers crit. Should I factor this into deciding which grand company to choose or should I not worry about that because I wont really be using that gear once I start getting drops from end game dungeons?

Basically should I let the stats affect the grand company I choose from or should I just go for aesthetics?

As it is now, GC will offer nice base-gear at all levels, absolutely on par with much other gear. The dungeon-drops however, seem to be just slightly better.
When Raid-gear, AF+1 and such factor in, GC-gear in comparison will most likely be for pure aesthetics.
I'd say go with your/your FC's company of choice!

I should have been more clear one that. Renew Thunder 1, 2, or 3

Any one care to start a useful BLM macro thread? The acn/smn/sch peeps are giving it a go.

short answer: no

BLMs run on a proc/priority system, not a set rotation

essentially you do have your simple rotation of spells, but that's only valid if you have no procs up, rotation goes out the window when you get thundercloud and firestarter - every other job (aside from bard) has the simple rotation thing you're talking about

sure elemental weaknesses are gone, but those only meant you were casting two slightly different spells than the previous encounter

there was nothing magical or deeply strategic about spamming Blizzard IV on half the enemies in the game

damn... I thought I had to level a THM 30 + PUG 15 for BLM...

I leveled ARC, ACN, and PUG to 15- just in case lol

hey i am new to the game and made a THM so i can make a BLM but my question is the extra attribute points i get after lvl 10 in what stat should i spend them.
