Actually I'm fine with high movement fights, BLM is about where it should be now, lower than melee on most of coil (when equally geared/skilled ofc) and higher than Bard.

The skill curve for doing Decent DPS on BLM is still as high as it was in movement heavy fights, there are loads of i120+ BLM that produce hardly any damage, due to failing to move and DPS.

I do agree summoner needs bringing up to be able on par with BLM in FCoB (any better than BLM and again we'd have little use for BLM in the Caster in top tier raid spots).

However I don't think the buff needs to be as dramatic as many are making it out to be, nor do I think BLM need to be nerfed as many here seem to be gunning for. SMN being the weaker Caster does not automatically make BLM over-powered.
