Do you think the devs intended multi-flare blm?

1.) Consistent because our rotation doesn't change. If you didn't understand that say so instead of putting words in my mouth.
2.) 2 procs because 1 is thundercloud the other is firestarter.
3.) My fault for not being more specific. In a party (in which we get an Int buff) with food 3 Flares gives enough chances for Raging Strikes so one to three Flares, depending on luck, to potentially crit for 2500-3200 each as long as the BLM's ilvls is between 90-96(counting Zenith-Animus weapon) which does not count FoE.
4.) Never did I say that burst design guarantees a constant up time on procs

Don't know why you are being overly dramatic with all of your points instead of being rational. Guess I was expecting too much of a civilized discussion.

1.) which still isn't "a constant 1000-1200 damage"
2.) "then gets 2 procs than can crit for 1500-1800 without relying on buffs" (to quote yourself) -> again for you: every firestarter proc followed directly after a firestarter proc gets wasted, since you're neither waiting after each fire I to see if you get a proc, nor are you breaking your fire I spell you're already casting again, since this would lead to a dps loss. in addition to that counting procs as consistent is just wrong. sometimes you get 3 thundercloud procs in a row with 3 or 4 firestarter procs, sometimes you get no thundercloud proc for ages and very few firestarters.
3.) I crit my flares for 32xx with 110 weapon and overall ilvl100, WITH food, WITH raging strikes AND Foe in a party. so stop talking bs
4.) neither did I that you said so. you said, that we're a burst class. I said that if we're unlucky and get neither crits, nor procs, there is no real burst by blm. we CAN burst if we get some procs, but we don't have any control over it, calling this a "burst design" which is just based on RNG.... meh, not really

Don't know why you don't read my words carefully and try to understand what I say instead of giving nonsense in return.
I cleared every existing content as a blm (yup, even cleared t9 already), I know how it feels to play a blackmage, I know the strength he has in some ways but I also know the flaws and can rank the blm as a dd in comparison to other dds quite well. you obviously can't and I feel sorry for that, but I guess you're just stubbornly sitting there ignoring facts that experienced people are trying to hand to you. guess I was expecting too much of a civilized discussion.
