BLM in PvP

I don't know about other black mages, but im having a really really hard time playing it in pvp. Every single meele hit interrupt my casts, the cooldown to make it uninterruptile is huge, and the cast times are really long.

I don't mind the cast times, but the interrupts are annoying when cast times aren't fast enough.

I know there may be teams for the feast that make it playable, but its still very easy to counter and hard to setup.

I wonder if BLM will get any pvp buff, or if they make it more viable( make the meele attacks interrupt less,for example)

Thoughts, please post !

I made a thread about this earlier today. It's just a few below yours. See here:

:D

BLM is outright useless in 4v4. Don't bother unless you want to become the teams punching bag. If anything, you just become a glorified sleeping machine.

BLM only works in pvp if the match has enough chaos for you to become a bit unseen. Which in 4v4, it doesn't work. For 4v4 just be a MCH or SMN for the ranged DPS.

All these threads are legitimately making me feel bad and reluctant to attack BLMs, haha ;

Blm might be even harder to play well than healer. I've only been teamed up with 1 blm thus far that has actually pulled his weight (had 130k+ dmg like me plus he even had more kills than I, 6 compared to my 3). Just like the healers it has a very steep learning curve to play effectively and more often than not blms like the one i mentioned before are rare to come across and you end up carrying dead weight making it feel as if your short 1 dps. It'll be interesting to see if they adjust that job because as it stands most ppl dread seeing blm as their teammate.
