    But like I said, that only occurs when I need to hardcast flare when swiftcast is cooling. Those same people that care so much about "half a second" would most likely be the same people who would never hardcast flare. And as I mentioned, I rarely hardcast it; the only time I hardcast flare is when I'm halfassing it on trash mobs

    That's like saying "tanks don't need to use their damage mitigation cooldowns; they just need to run with better healers." Better hope you never get me as your healer, because I won't heal you when you have such an asinine attitude.

    It has nothing to do with healers lol...it's about utility and maximizing DPS.

    You use them to minimize or completely negate high damage, one-shot, or knockback attacks so that you can simply stand in place and continue DPSing.

    The only macro I use on BLM is /ac "Aetherial Manipulation <4> (healer), keybound to one of my mouse buttons, so I don't have to mouse over anyone, I don't have to click anything, I just push the button, and it zooms be back into the stack on t8 after mines or tower activations, makes you immune to leviathan slam/deck slide so you can keep DPSing, pretty much anything and everything.

    Might actually cut out on maximizing your DPS by taking the extra half second to cast those actions LOL LOL LOL

    On a more serious note, thanks for the AM explanation and example, I appreciate it.

    You know what's so overpowered in this game, that they just HAD to leave out?
    -Buffing during cutscenes.
    -Pets receiving the Protect buff.
    -A blacklist with more than a 200 player capacity.
    -Filtering the flying text for your own numbers.
    -A better way to organize and sort through your macros.

    That's your affirmation, not mine

    No, actually, it's yours. It's the exact logic you stated. In fact, it's pretty much exactly what you stated.



    Nice attitude!
    Learn not to waste your healer's time and mana and we'll be more willing to heal you. Simple as that.

    My main is a healer. If I see someone's hp is low, I heal them, simple as that. Whether it be the person's mistake, the game's doing, or something absolutely unavoidable, I heal them. I. Heal. Them.

    Sounds like you're a lackadaisical healer. Shame.

    Reasoning like this is why there are so many hopeless blm's xD

    It's not theorycrafting, it's truth in reality. What, you never got stuck in the middle of something that was unavoidable in that current moment or are you just impervious to all instances of such? You're not as good as you think you are. Also, mistakes happen. You're not going to be perfect every time you play.

    Guess you came out of the womb a perfect BLM too. Tell me, how did they get you out of there with that goofy witch hat?

    Read your original statement again. It really is.



    My main is a healer. If I see someone's hp is low, I heal them, simple as that. Whether it be the person's mistake, the game's doing, or something absolutely unavoidable, I heal them. I. Heal. Them.

    Keep being incompetent. It'll get you far.

    Also, I don't think you know what lackadaisical means.
