I understand you - though am shocked you play BLM given that.

Haha, it's actually less counterintuitive than it might seem! BLM generally requires fewer actions per minute due to cast times, so it's generally easier on my hands and wrists to play. I've also made myself an amazing set of macros that make it so that the bulk of BLM gameplay only requires around 8 buttons.

Also, I don't do Extreme or Savage content, and I'm at best a mediocre BLM, so if there are high-end techniques you're thinking of, I probably haven't yet reached the point where I'm using them. I only recently discovered that there were advanced weaving techniques that in all my years of playing I had never thought to use, and I'm currently trying to practice adding these new techniques into my play, one at a time. It's a very slow process! But it's one I enjoy. ^^

And when there's a need for me to be more effective than I can be with BLM, I generally switch to PLD or SMN, though I try not to do it for long as Garuda phase can agitate my symptoms.

A solution that you can use and that I like is to note there are often actions that don't require constant use or additional presses. For example, Shell/Protect you generally use between battles (the rank 2s; rank 1s or Eureka's versions last for 30 mins). Likewise, the Spirit of things like Aetherweaver, in Eureka, are buffs you use and then don't have to keep pressing or engaging with (Bozja traded those for potions, though), and you can have things like Raise or Cure 2/4/etc on a BLM for emergency use but that won't be part of your standard rotation. Those are all options for you to try since you don't really need extra keybinds and you use them holding down the trigger and clicking in the thumbstick.

Thanks for the suggestion, that's what I try to do in general. For whatever reason pressing the thumbstick is extra agitating for my symptoms, so whatever I can do to minimize the amount I need to use it is great for me!
