I've said before and I'll say again: I'm pretty sure I've gotten worse at DOT timer refreshing since SHB removed all the DOTs. The supposed 'change to make it easier to manage DOTs' (by packaging them all into one) has actually done the opposite for me, and made it harder for me to remember to check if they need refreshing. Because between each DOT refresh now is ELEVEN other GCDs.

I think it's been used at times to refer to BLM's comparative lack of mobility (or, perceived lack) compared to it's counterparts, to allude to a WHM where it has to stay still and 'turret' to do optimal damage. The old SHB version kind of had this, where it had 2.5s cast times and so movement was much harder to deal with. Lilies helped but were a damage loss (though not as much as completely dropping the GCD)

I don't think I want BLM-on-WHM. I don't think Dia-cloud procs will make WHM 'engaging' enough to solve it's issues. It'd help, but I don't think it's enough. We all know what I'd want. Apparently that'd make WHM more complex than SMN. Well, if that's the case, then it just shows how done dirty SMN is right now
