Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

[Hontaro]

Not exactly the right thread for this, but quite a few people here are knowledgable;
Is it normal that a Bard struggles with feeding the add to the Straf Doll because of low dps if he's the only one hitting it?

Also, when the adds spawn and you have Ley Lines ready, do you immediately use it (and if yes, where do you place it?) or do you feed the add without Ley Lines and pop it afterwards?

I do the normal Sharp F1 opener on 3rd leg, with leylines up precast as the leg spawns, then I pick up my doll with the swiftcast flare while moving there. Very minimal uptime loss. Then usually something like convert > f4 > b3 > b4 > (t1 on leg) > f3 > f4 > scathe > feed.

If a DPS (like a BRD) needs help, usually the SCH helps out a bit. But most of the time, people should plan their rotation around add pickups so they need little help with feeding on time.

I would rather save Swiftcast for feeding and just use the F3 opener for that part.

I do:

Ley lines + Sharp right as Mortal Revolution ends > F3 > RS+Eno > F1 > F4x3 > F3P on the leg > Convert > F4x3 on add then blizzard 3 > Swiftcast Blizzard IV while feeding it(and also dodging Seeds of the Sky). Shouldn't need to resort to Scathe really.
