I'd like to ask for a minor change regarding Blizzard IV & Fire IV (As well as Freeze & Flare) to have one button similar in function to how GNB continuation and SMN gemshine work. Seeing as a BLM can't cast them without having either Astral Fire/Umbral Ice active.

Blizzard 4/Fire 4; Flare/Freeze; Despair/Umbral Soul...
Ley Lines and Between the Lines, to boot... -

I think BLM could do with better button consolidation.
Fire II upgrading to Flare.
Blizzard II upgrading to Freeze.
But having B4 and F4 share a buttonn would just mean you're mashing the same button for 90% of your rotation
How dull. -

Black Mage does have a lot of button bloat.
