I think the best thing to do is to remove the Enochian gate to cast Fire and Bliz IV but keep the ability and mechanics to maintain a damage boost.

In other words, you can cast Fire and Blizzard IV any time but need to follow the Enochian rotation to keep your 5% magic damage up, maybe even increase it to 10%. This way you always have your full arsenal but rewarded with a buff for skillful play.

This guy has it exactly right! This would make the rotation less punishing while still retaining its complexity.
For the love of God, please please don't throw us back to brainless 2.x Fire spamming!

Yes please! I think this is the perfect solution.
