BLM and swiftcast

[diamondfish]

I was just curious, but is there ever a reason to use swiftcast on a BLM other than for mobility? Seems pointless to swiftcast and damage spells but I maybe wrong.

Are you kidding? Have you even looked at your spells? Look up flare. Imaging nuking your largest damn nuke instantly, with no cast time. How about that? How about instantly healing yourself when you're in danger? How about instantly starting your fire rotation when you're not on Umbral Ice III? DUDE!!!! Damn it. Google. Learn your rotations. Don't start a totally useless thread like this with NO research done what so ever.

wow ok, first off, i forgot about flare, secondly, healing made sense but if i have to use swiftcast to heal myself im prolly dead anyways, i dont see why swiftcasting fire3 is useful it still invokes a cooldown, so mainly i was wondering if that was actually worth spending a swiftcast on. its not a totally pointless thread but your post was mostly pointless.
