Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

[Sephorai]

Hey I'm a returning player for Stormblood, trying to get into playing BLM just wanted to ask this since there are 200+ pages to this thread and Id rather not have to read through everything. How accurate is the guide at the very beginning of the post?

Been trying to find good details on Opener/rotation

I've been able to figure out rotation myself and it seems to match up with with what's on the guide on the first page but I'm still rather confused about ideal openers.

It is accurate as for live atm, obviously not for Stormblood yet. As for Stormblood, some ppl have made guesses as to the best openers but once it releases will be easier to test and figure out the optimal opener. One thing should be for certain though, you will want to start in Umbral Ice for Stormblood, the reason for this is to gain the Umbral Hearts stacks for your opening Astral Fire sequence.

Thank you very much Thela! I just needed to make sure that info was still relevant.

Edit: another quick question, in the sharp cast F1 opener you're supposed to go F4, F4, F1, F4, F3proc, Swiftcast F4, convert, F4, F4. What do I do if I don't get a fire 3 proc?
