The lv94 BLM is right but to kick you for it is just LOL. Report him. Keep in mind that the fact that fire 1 keeps you in Astral Fire longer is not that a big of a factor, its a very minor one in fact due to the way BLMs work. I'm too tired to explain everything so just parse it, have one BLM do fire 1 and one do fire 2. The result is even more apparent one you get Flare. Why? Too tired to explain, parse it.
