> I'm glad to hear. Sounds more successful then my Piety build yesterday xD

I'm not dare to try piety build yet xD

I was too confident with the raid wide DPS so I just flare up everything in P3. I was sure we could beat it below 14 minutes mark
Besides, we still had a Pain wandering around after Terraflare. So I don't think the MNK dropped his GL3

Hey, just a question about your opener and rotation in general;
Do you weave in an off-GCD skill for your last fire in each rotation? Or is the damage increase for an AF3 Fire 3 not worth the dps loss of not getting a firestarter proc/getting an AF1 Fire 3.

Personally when I'm required to blm for our raid's, if I end up getting Firestarter proc on last F1 I will cast T1-> B1-> Transpose->Use firestarter proc. I will cut off B1 if I get the 1st mana tick instantly after B3.

But then again, I'm not main blm and I haven't spent as much time min/maxing my rotations and such as I've spent on mnk, so I could be really off with this.

Outside of fireweaving with OGCD abilities, that is optimal, to my knowledge.

I don't. If I get a proc at my last Fire, I still B3 and I'll use transpose. The only exception is if my last fire I have to move due to megaflare and it happens to be a proc.
