Ideas to Improve The Black Mage (for 4.2 and beyond!)

[LeeraSorlan]

I did a good detail of research into my rotation, and my opener. However, OS3 is just simply not made for Black Mage. Like. At all. I'm mostly fine in OS2, and OS1 is fine until anything to do with ice comes up.

I never have Triplecast off cooldown without Leylines because I originally had the two lined up, and I'd rather not miss future Octafire IV bursts.

Correct me if im reading wrong, but are you saying you sit on triple cast until u can line it up with leylines?

that is going to lessen your DPS alot more than saving it to get one or two more fire 4s in, triple cast in a way is also a speed buff, because fire 4 has a shorter recast time than cast time, thats 20 seconds youd be sitting on triple cast, each time. so i wouldnt recommend that
