BLM LB on gamepad?

[Ulathskullsplitter]

You have to make sure you release the LB/RB buttons (crossbar selection buttons) if you are using the cross bar, and just hit "confirm" by itself, otherwise its trying to use your cross bar abilities.

^ That's what happened. Happens to me all the time with ring of fire. I don't hardly ever use it anymore because it takes too long to position with a controller. They need to change these types of attacks to automatically be centered on your target and then you can reposition it from there and confirm. As it is now it starts as far away as possible for some reason.
