Live letter test stream spoils new BLM stuff

[Ariane]

Manawall, surecast, blizzard 1 and lethargy aren't on his bar. Manawall was probably merged with manaward.

Also some of the cross class skills seem missing. There is no raging strikes, quelling strikes, eye for eye, but there is a purple virus and a dimmed out physick.

I remember weeks ago somebody jokingly saying that one of the new spells will be teleporting to the leyline.

Funny how he was right.

Nice!
Now just hoping they don't f*** up Enochian and throw us back to mindlessly spamming Fire. Please SE, don't, Blm is so much more fun with the added depth we got from Heavensward.

You still have to wait the gcd when you use swiftcast, I believe this super swiftcast wouldn't be any different, but it means you can cast 3 spells while moving every 90s.

Ah didn't think of that. Still a pretty significant boost though. I'm going to really enjoy all this extra mobility.

Perfect for any annoying mechanic that repeatedly targets you, like those giant orbs in Dun Scaith. If they're not getting rid of Swiftcast as well, that's four spells I can drop on a boss while avoiding attacks.

New changes to enochian:

Lasts 30s, cooldown 30s, enochian is lost if you lose AF or UI, if you keep enochian up for more than 30s (I assume extending with B4) you gain a new buff, no info on what this new buff does.

エノキアン/Enochian

アビリティ/Ability

Cast Time: Instant

Recast Time: 30.00 s

一定時間、自身の与魔法ダメージを５％上昇される。 さらに、ブリザジャとファイジャを詠唱することができるようになる。 「アストラルファイア」または「アンブラルブリザード」の効果が切れるとエノキアンは即座に解除される。 追加効果： エノキアンを３０秒間持続されることで「ポリグロット」が付与される。 発動条件： 「アストラルファイア」または「アンブラルブリザード」効果中

For the duration of Enochian, Magic Damage dealt by you is increased by 5%. In addition, you may cast Blizzard IV and Fire IV. Enochian is lost immediately upon losing "Astral Fire" or "Umbral Ice". Additional Effect: Upon maintaining Enochian for a duration of 30 seconds, you gain Polyglot. Activation Conditions: Must be under the effect of "Astral Fire" or "Umbral Ice"

so in essence its going to work sort of like Huton works currently with Armor Break. IE: you wont likely lose it during a boss encounter or while in battle period.

a Polyglot is essentially someone who has fluency in multiple languages. Enochian historically is supposed to be the language of Angels. My guess is Polyglot is either a stronger form of Enochian or modifies Enochian somehow.

[ZhaneX]

Interested to see what exactly "Polygot" does. New utilities look super promising too.

But I'm really worried about the new condition for Enochian, about how you lose it if AF or UI is dropped. Typically I hit 4x Fire IVs, and I'll have just enough time left on AF to use B3 with a speed buff, but usually AF will drop off before UI is applied. So if that will now cause me to lose Enochian, I guess I'll have to change?

This might actually make BLM more usable in pvp.. I can't wait to blow up runaways with 3 Fire IV's on the move >:3
