Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

Thordan so good on BLM after getting the hang of it. I thought SMN would be kings on this fight at first but goddamn, BLM still seems to destroy this fight despite what many would consider to be a movement heavy fight.

Currently hitting 1160 w/ no bard and ninja, I feel like this is yet another fight which might seem unfriendly for BLMs at first, but becomes very easy once you get comfortable w/ it.

Yep! I love it. Their utility is so good too, Manaward/wall are excellent in this fight and I've been able to save many people with Apoc.

Would you mind telling me what moves are physical vs. magical? In some cases, I find myself popping both ward and wall just to be safe. I assume both the tether charge and prey are physical.

Meteorain, Lightning Storm, The Dragon's Rage, Ancient Quaga, Heavensflame, Conviction, Skyward Leap (blue prey), Holiest of Holy, Hiemal Storm, Comets, Spear of The Fury are all magical so Manaward and Apoc are really good. You don't really need it for most of those but I tend to pop it in the beginning so I don't need to move from Meteorain, during Comets if I have Holy Meteor, during the annoying part with chains+meteor+hiemal, and near the end if we get to the AOE part.

Manawall isn't as good but it can be useful for Spiral Pierce (tether) and it can be useful for Sacred Cross near the end of the fight if you make it that far.

Can you upload a run? I only seem to be able to hit 997 at most with an ilvl of 197 at the time.

I can upload my PoV but I play on PS4 so it won't have a parse. Here's the run from Aiurily's PoV w/ the numbers shown.
