This is the Black Mage. Watch it cast Flare in slow motion. The Black Mage is currently considered the most daring job in Final Fantasy XIV. Yes that's right. Better watch out, Dragoons. The Black Mage is pretty badass. They don't care much about dodging shit at all. A group of dungeon mobs attacking them? Activates Manawall. A Primal about to use its ultimate? Activates Manaward. The Black Mage just really doesn't give a shit. It's that OP! :cool:

Watch a random mechanic hit you twice in a row during your opener -> watch your dps fall to 1100ish.
Watch Waukkeon.
Watch Neverreap aka Nevercast.
Watch SMNs having better AOEs, no cast time, more mobility, less LoS, awesome burst.
Watch PvP buff needed to we can cast something without being interrupted by a monk auto attack.
Watch top tier BLMs being top DPS in FFlogs.
Watch 99% of the BLMs being 3-4th best DPS in FFlogs.
Watch for Aoes.
Etc. Dont get me wrong. BLM is awesome.
But in a lot of actual fights it can become boring really fast.
It s my favorite job, mained it since 2013 through the Coils and so on and i still main it along with the DRK.
But it is not overpowered at all. It s just OK. -

This might look very elitist comment, but BLM is really complicated job. It's extremely rare that you encounter with good BLMs. Because most of them don't use triple flare, time manawall perfectly or even use Aether manipulation, which is the best ability when it comes to avoiding deadly mechanics. I seen way too many players rely on fire 4 or just spam fire 2.. But what BLMs can do in FFXIV is truly impressive. But such power comes with the price.. Your movements are simply limited. If you keep avoiding damage, you eventually screw up your rotation and your DPS drop dramatically. And when we talk about rotation.. There is a pattern. Most FFXIV boss/raid mechanics will ruin that.

But is Triple Flare worth the downtime over a Draco Potion of INT?
-
03-26-2016, 07:52 AMAngelicSenceIt's situational. Triple flare worth your time on big group, and if you can time it, you can easily regain MP without waiting long 2 seconds. That's what I do and I can see myself doing more damage. But against boss/raid fights, I never use MP potion. 84 INT boost is huge.Quote:
