Is this a good Black Mage rotation?

This means, find something useful to do after the last Fire 1 whenever you can - Raging Strikes, Quelling Strikes, Thundercloud procs (if they happen close enough to the last Fire 1 - there's nothing more annoying than having a Thundercloud proc hit while you have an unused Thundercloud proc up =\), etc.

Please do not use Raging Strikes after your last Fire I. That's twice in this topic you've advocated it. Fireweaving is great, and the rest of the info you've posted is very useful and helpful and I agree with it all, but Raging Strikes is not something you should be using to weave, unless you just love wasting 6-8 seconds of it on Blizzard 3 and Thunder 1.

Oh, sorry! I never claimed to be the best BLM, I've never parsed my DPS, and as I said, I'm terrible at weaving. I thought that having it up for two Thunder 1s was good, but I guess it's not as good as having it up for extra Fire 1s.

When's the best time to use it? After the Fire 3, or after the first Fire 1?
