Well I just used mine on the casting gloves this week. If they drop, add it to the evidence.

Anyone know the new meta on BLM BiS? Is it Eso earrings + Crit/acc food or Eso wrists + ss food?

...Can the be different metas with bis ?_?

Anyways, this seems to be the generally accepted set with weapon being a wildcard.

http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/REKU SS/Crit
http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/RLIP Crit/SS
http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/ROS0 SS/Det

And the one you posted.

To anyone with latency or under Arrow/Selene, and doing the F1 opener, go for this instead of trying to fit Convert + Swift in one GCD:

F1 > F3P > F4 F4 F1 (get proc) F4 > F3P > Swiftcast > F4 > Convert > F4 F4 > B3

Strictly better than going for a Flare in that opener if you score the F3P, since there is zero chance of clipping (in my case, pretty realistic clipping with 1.9s GCD, guess I'm not JP enuff).

By any chance does anyone know the state weights for blm? I found this doc (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2H...gyNzEyX3c/view) and it says det 0.108, crit 0.157, ss, 0.172. Can anyone confirm? Thanks :)

To be honest, I can't confirm that, but it sounds right. If those numbers are correct, Sohm al Tarts would actually be better than Creme Brulee. Not by much, but much cheaper and easier to make. Which would make this BiS:

I'm looking specifically at the part in the guide where both sharpcast + enochian CDs are up. It is Sharpcast + eno > F1 > F4 x2 > F3P > F4x2 > B3. I'm confused on why it starts at F1 and not F3. even if I were to transpose, that's only AF2 after the first F1 while doing the first two F4s. How does that work out??

It is for the UI phase... Sharpcast, Eno, F3, F1, F4, F4, F3P, F4, F4, B3. So it does start with F3, but that is part of the UI phase, the rotation was for the AF phase.
