Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

[Viuiji]

For endgame raiding (static is working on A1S atm) is it ok to stay Elezen DW? FFXIV is my first ever MMO and while I love it I do see many of the other BLM's are Lala??

Is there an advantage to being one over the other for raiding? I know that Lala have better PIE whilst the Elezen have higher Int, but am unsure if I should change race. I have averaged 1106 on Faust over the last 10 Faust clears and understand I need to keep practicing, but will a race change help that at all?

Thank you

p.s. Thank you Aikaal for this great guide! has helped me alot to love my BLM even more than 2.0 I enjoy that it is more challenging now!

EDIT:
Scoured through quite a few pages and saw Aikaal mention he had moved to Elezen for the Int. SO I guess I'll stay as is for now.
Although, from what I read, it doesn't seem to matter much?
