Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

[Galvuu]

I am just happy they acknowledged the MP issues. With these changes the 4.0 rotation will become a lot smoother but is it enough? Is it enough to make 4.0 more viable than 3.0 rota?
Maybe the other adjustments not mentioned will make up for the rest.

3.X still has higher pps than 4.0- 152 VS 148, the same margin we have now.
The only way to change this is to either buff Fire/Blizzard IV potencies or significantly shorten Blizzard IV's cast time (Fire IV doesn't need this adjusted).
I don't think they understand why Umbral Hearts is a dps loss most of the time...

That said, buffs are buffs, so it's a slow step in the right direction.
Now they need to understand why the 4.0 rotation is suboptimal most of the time.
