    In my opinion the problem is that the blm has cast time and we can't renew fast our buff. We have to manage always 2 buffs to do max dps, other classes only one. We can't move easily cause we have cast time and, if bosses are moving like last boss on Nevereap, I can't renew anything. MNKs and DRGs don't have the cast time problem... they can renew their buff "using" adds, we can't.

    Ley line is the dumbest idea in this game.

    What if there was a buff thats the opposite of Minuet? Trade damage for temporary mobility. Maybe casting on the move. Sort of like that one skill Astro has. I don't know I'm just annoyed at mechanics happening at shitty times I guess. I know all the little tricks to do well as a black mage, its just more obnoxious now.

    If you're on controller and using one of the control schemes, you can pivot while casting without breaking your cast if it's just a line of sight issue. But that control scheme kind of sucks for a controller. But you can make a macro to face the target (it's probably /facetarget or something) that automatically pivots you to where your target is. That will help with regular line of sight issues while completing a cast. Just hammer that macro button while the target is moving.

    I think the biggest problem is the gear we have atm, it's the low end for spellspeed. I'll stick to DRG until there is much better gear with alot of spellspeed and switch back to BLM. I think it's goin to be much better with a decent amount of spellspeed.

    We already have that, it's called Scathe. Pure mobility at a mere cost of half of your dps. The thing about pretty much every single fight in FFXIV is that they are scripted 100%. The more you do a fight, the less time you end up wasting in movement.

    It's awkward while you're getting used to the changes, but it's really not that bad. We just have to learn fights again, no big deal. I thought neverreap was the worst thing in the world but after running it a couple times it isn't so bad. You can clear bismarc ex with 100% enochian uptime.

    Learn the patterns, move preemptively, utilize AM. We get hit harder by movement than we used to, but if you know the mechanics of a fight and still find it literally impossible to maintain enochian then you just haven't gotten used to the new rotation yet.

    we have now the abiility to proc thunder or and fire to help our mobility just need to analise fights more so we can find when we can just push dps in a spike the trail off to a normal we are not going to be constant dps and anyone who thinks we are needs to just change jobs. yes we can hold constant dmage for a short time but then we are able to ramp up the damage numbers with enochian and laylines and out T IV spells
