Gather energy over time (max 7s), every second you get a stacking buff that is consumed uppon cancelling/finishing the channeling.
Damage is equal to 400 potency per stack. Each stack damage is calculated individualy (so you don't C/DH all 7 stack at once)
Spell speed increase damage done by the spell , but does not haste channeling (gathering stack) faster.
While channeling Astral Fire / Umbral Ice timer stops ticking.

Total damage is about 2100 potency over 7s or 400pps. Current FireIV is 220pps so this is roughly the equivalent of casting 3 free fire4 every 90s
Nothing broken imo
This end up being a "decent" cooldown but nothing transcendant either.

The goal is to bring back the fantasy of the turret caster casting a long but deadly spell.
Due to the leyline requirement and freeze on UI/AF timer, it doesn't change the usual BLM rotation.
The fact that it is not a cast be a channel means that you can't really cancel your cast. Not moving for 7s in a leyline is something I've been able to do in absolutely every single fight and leyline so this is something that, I believe would bring some good fun to the BLM without perturbing the rotation.

New traits
- enhanced polarity -
When casting fire3 under UI your next fire1 becomes Triple Fire
When casting blizz3 under AF , your next B4 always critical hit

Triple Fire
Cast 1.5s recast 2.5s
Hurl 3 fireball each dealing fire damage.
Potency : 200 per fireball


Fire2 : becomes the air version of Fire3
There's one little thing that I'd love as a BLM, and it is an actual MP gauge built in the job gauge. Reason is because MP as a BLM is treated almost like a build/spend bar, and it would be handy to keep track of it at the same location of your enochian, umbral hearts, etc.
