Either SMN and RDM should lose their Raise or BLM should get a Raise.

But is that useful uptime or spamming Scathe while moving? Also, Frost wouldn't give Umbral Hearts, so about half your point is invalid, and we can invalidate the other half by stating one obvious fact: clipping your damage over time effects that early is bad. Even if my idea is crap, you can at least admit that it's 245218093457230984765092314760923457809234679023476902346092347860932485092347609237406923456097342590623462385976298572894357928147598246598723459872859672348572840395729483569823146927836509827598023759823467920843569872465982475982369853247689236495723095872349856264790582473958634982749582763489053274986624398572498573498672398567298467y349856729843569823467890234509284609832568u3250967324095723985462937862938767529847659842365892475892490% better than giving black mage a Raise variant.

Giving BLM a raise would break the Lore so badly. I know a lot of you guys don't give two craps about the lore but you forget this is an rpg. If an rpg sets up lore that states, quite obviously I might add, that Thaumaturgy is about death and destroying things then gives a class that is, according to lore, ILLEGAL in the realm of magic, it would become the most awful rpg. There's no way to sugar coat it.

THANK YOU!!!

To all the people complaining about the lack of mobility that BLM has: just stop playing BLM. Play SMN or RDM, BLM isn't for you.

That's basically what I do, yes.

Ths is why i say the lore is irrelevant. not because its not good lore, or because i dont care about the lore...but because the lore is such a vague thing in this specific game, that they need only make one small excuse of an adjustment and suddenly it fits in the lore.

By your logic, chocobos shouldn't exist. Please do actual research before you dismiss the entirety of a world.
