"Casting will always be interuppted [sic] upon receiving direct damage."

Any direct hit. (does not affect DoT's) Have you seriously forgotten about our instants? (which includes aetherial manipulation) For moving I have scathe and fire III proc and an instant proc on thunder. Lets not forget to mention transpose for mp regen. Now what happens if I add in swiftcast and surecast?

I'm sure you can get the picture that its probably not going to be a one sided fight you think it will be. I've 'kited' plenty of mobs I shouldn't have been able to in ARR already and solo killed plenty of NM fates on my BLM as well.

yes i didnt forget that, it will be the spell i imagine i will be the spamming spell. as for AM Mnk can counter that and close that distance with shoulder tackle. and what i said before does Surecast and Swift cast ingore Stuns and silences if they are cast on you?\

but how with you get those fire 3 or thunderclouds of if someone is hitting you or you are running from them and cant cast because they are behind you while you run, and chances are even if you get a blizzard 2 of for bind they can still hit you.
