Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

Non opener comparisons leylines, convert and swift are down

240- 518 (f4) - 518 (f4) - 333 (f1)- 518 - 518 = 2645 potency over 15.62 seconds 0 delay nor interruption.

New non opener

240 (f3)- 481 (f4 1 UH used)- 481 (f4 1UH used) - 481 (f4 last UH used) - 333 (f1)- 481 - 481 - 481 = a potency of 3459 Over the course of 21.38s. Now if you look at that you\\\\'re correct we are slower to do our full rotation and if we opt for old

But add in triple cast once lines vert and swift are down and the cast time drops to 19 seconds not counting any spell speed and i gave old 3.0 blm 1037 spell speed times giving it an advantage and our second 6x f4 is only 3s behind and but 814 potency ahead every 90s.
Add in ss and that 19s drops quickly.

We are faster, not light speed but we are faster, even if we lose 1 fire 4 we are still 333 better with relatively the same time of 16s

also forgot to mention ice phase we will generally gain 685 potency over 3.0s ice phase as well.
