Blizzard II nerf for BLM too severe

[Dale]

Fire 2 can not be spammed, blizzard 2 can. You run out of MP super fast if you just spam Fire 2 and then you're gonna be OOM.

You are missing the point.

Yes, it uses up more MP because Fire2 is done in Astral Fire rather Umbral ice. Of course. But Fire2 does more damage, so using Fire2 over Blizzard2 will do more damage... unless for some silly reason the black mage refuses to change into umbral ice and just sits there doing nothing with no mp.

It's not a heavy nerf. Blizzard2 was never our best source of damage. It might have been part of some bugged rotation using flare. But it was flare that was doing all the damage. It wasn't blizzard 2.

And people use Blizzard2 in fates because doing lots of damage is rarely important. You are just trying to "tag" as many things as possible before it's over like you say. Which blizzard 2 can still be used for.

So your argument as to why this was such a heavy nerf is not convincing. At least not for me.
