    And oh, look at that. It lines up perfectly with my burst phase for a sextuple FC+Up+2Onslaught. I don't honestly care anymore, BLM is dead so long as RDM can buff DPS higher and higher, IMHO. I'll take bigger direct crits over a turret caster that loses on movement everytime all the time. At least BLM is good in dungeons, I guess.

    The buff drops off, yes, but it still lasts the entire burst phase. It's even better with a MNK because MNK has Brotherhood, another 5% phys dps buff, and pair it with an RDM Embolden, and suddenly all your physical are hitting even harder! I know MNK is preferred over bard for speed kills. I also know BLM is "acceptable" but not "preferred".
