Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

[Vateri]

Not sure if its the best strat but i usualy fire I - Fire Iv - Swift Fire IV to kill my add before resin bomb so i can go back to turreting and minding my own business

Do you start casting fire of right away? Is there much risk of the add getting deleted before getting to the laser if stuff crits?

Fire I - Fire IV are casted right away. I usualy wait half a second to swift fire IV so it can get to me.
I should've mentioned before i cast fire I i use sharpcast. If fire I crit i replace the first fire IV with firestarter in case the planets allign and both decide to crit

Hi, I'm seeking advice.... My raid team are currently still doing AS1 and i'm wondering if you can give me any blm tips for this fight. and give me some advice on my rotation.
Currently my opener is LL>T2>SC>F1>RS/POT/F3 proc>F4x2>F1>F4x2>proc if available>B3>T2>B4.
Followed by my rotation of F4x2>F1>F4x2>B3>B4.

As BLM on first adds to achieve maximum dps on boss, I am casting double flair to kill adds. Any advice on this?

My parse is roughly 1200 on faust and 900 overall dps on Opressor. I am il190.

Any info you can help me with would be greatly appreciated at i wanna do everything i can to help my group clear this fight.

I'd suggest checking out the Guide in this thread; you could squeeze out more F4s in your opener with Convert.

Of course this means that you won't have Convert for overkilling the first adds like crazy, but that's not necessary. In my group I bane the adds as SCH; one add is invariably stuck in a resin pool dropped by the melee, so they can breathe on it to finish killing it, and the OT and I drop the one that goes for me.
