    OPTIMAL setup for a WP SR is PLD, BRD, BLM, WHM.... sorry if people get butt hurt, that's just the way it is... I have tried running with other jobs, a geared WAR can sub for a PLD but that's about it. If you don't run a BRD for songs then after pulls you are waiting around for 3 mins for mana, OR you PLD goes oom during pulls and BLM pulls hate and dies, WHM goes oom trying to heal BLM and PLD, PLD dies, WHM dies, 4th guy is sitting there thinking, man these people suck.... so ya

    1. Your optimal setup is correct for generally accurate reasons.

    2. The magnitude of mana management for the Paladin is pretty far off of what you're claiming. As long as the PLD knows wtf they're doing, they can adapt to not having a bard song and will only have to wait around for mana for ~15 seconds max during the entire run. However, this does require a learning curve.

    The overall lighter strain on PLD mana management also enables them to use more sprint, though, which also reduces total clear time by a few seconds -- probably 10-15s from that component.

    A total ~30-45s penalty for not having barsong for the PLD is not going to make or break a WP run, however.

    The PLD u've been running with is BAD. You dont need to Spam flash, i just flash 2-3 times and start using riot blade, seconds later i use it more 2 times (Keep doing the same until mobs are dead). If ur PLD and WHM are good you can do it with 2BLM...
