    Could you point out how and where you do AOEs / Flares on the EX primals incl. Leviathan? Would like to compare the dmg outputs

    Generally, you would only want to use flare when the fight fulfills below condition:-

    1. Multiple adds gathers at the same spots.
    2. Pushing DPS at the last few seconds (Win or wipe scenario)
    3. When convert and swift cast is available and you foresee no use of swift cast in the later 60 Sec after you use them now. (Double flare; triple if use mana pots)


    Garuda:
    Razor plumes phase when everyone stack to lure Razor plumes together. You only flare when that happens.

    Titan:
    Never unless you are trying to break Super bomb or push DPS before enrage happens.

    Ifrit:
    Never, unless you are trying to push DPS before Enrage.

    Levi:
    When two adds gathers or when an add is at the head location (Very suitable for double/triple) flare.
    When you try to down spumes.


    Flare isn't always a DPS increase. If used incorrectly, it will even reduce DPS because after flare, you need to convert + Ice III and finally go back to your normal DPS rotation which takes forever.

    On titan I tend to Flare the goal below titan esp. on heart phase.

    A nice way not to go into Blizz3 is to continue with Fire 3 + Fire 1 and then to use Blizzard 3, with around 250 Piety thats no problem

    I am so sorry for confusing everyone by typing convert, i mean transpose.

    If convert is ready, i would Manual cast Flare---> Convert----> Swift cast Flare
