Do you think the devs intended multi-flare blm?

[Urielparadox]

On topic of the tank,
1) if you have a lbm who specializes(or smn) in aoe damage why are you stopping multi target hate generation after 2 flashes, instead of generating plenty of hate before starting a combo? You should never be pulling less then 5 mobs(unless their aren't 5) or your wasting a blm damage. and your combo does not compensate in terms of dot, nearly enough as it would to ask a blm to slow down.

2) why is it strange for you to just now see blm using flairs? they should have always been using it, don't get mad at dps. Why aren't you using flight or fight + circle of scorn instead of the single target combo; since you have 5+ mobs on you anyway? it's just simple logic error on your end.

3)make sure the black mage is using QS if not then go ahead and correct the mage. However you are not without error on your end.

I have major issues with this and mixed feelings. This is not what the devs intended and we already got hurt pretty annoyingly once because of players ABUSING the way umbral ice and tics work. Yes they said in their live letter ages ago addressing the issue that it was exploiting the system(but not a punishable offence) If this becomes as wide spread as the old double flair abuse(or even just like this thread helping bring attention to it) I expect another huge nerf/hit to black mage that will undo a lot of the incoming updates, or I expect the updates to remove this possibility by putting flair on a recast timer. Which would mean no more legitimate double flair. If se decides to change their mind and not count this as abuse then they will have to improve fire II and nerf flairs damage(at least base). which I don't want either. However SE has to work fixing this into their schedule with fixing blm which means just longer postponement on us getting made more useful.
