BLM Aoe and Enochian

[Vantil]

I agree that something should change, and I like your ideas.

My suggestion is this: During enochian your Flare won't consume all your mana, won't give Astral Fire stacks, but instead lower your enochian duration. With this you would have to add a F2 now and then to stay in Astral Fire 3, and you'll eventually drop enochian if you go crazy with the aoes. You would have to chose if you wish to "spend" your enochian right away for really high aoe burst, or use less Flares to make sure you have enochian for the next part of the fight/dungeon/whatever.

Maybe tricky, but it sounded good in my head.

Pretty cool idea. Essentially its making our 3.0 single target rotation an aoe rotation (flare is the new fire 4) where we can throw out some flares, refresh af with fire 2, and make sure we leave ourselves enough to to refresh enochian when necessary. Maybe this could create a situation where I put blizzard 2 back on my bar like "oh crap I lost af3, enochian has around 7 second left" :3

I like the idea of enochian making it so flare leave us at 7-8%'ish mana instead of 0% so we can finally aoe without sucking our thumbs for 6-9 seconds after every flare
However i'm pretty sure if you want something to change, you need to get the japaness to complain about it enough

My no cooldown aoe rotation consist of fire III - fire II x3 - Flare - Transpose. Wait 0.5 after first mana tick - fire III - fire 2 x2 - flare. Repeat from transpose
I don't believe in blm's aoe anymore so more often than not, i single target kill pulls. unless there are 4-5+

Lol yea I just got done messing around and had one instance where after blizzard 4 I still didnt have enough mana regen to fire 3 fire 2x2 flare so yea my logic was moot. Guess I just have to stand there a sec just like I do after flare out of fear of transposing into astral. Oh how the times have changed. Before: do it tank pull the room and lemme at em! Now: small pull please lemme blow em up 1 at a time lol
