Most difficult DPS class to play?

[LetBloodline]

This is not what I said. If you read some of the posts here and on reddit, these are what some of the "top blms" are claiming to be doing.

Well everyone can call himself "top BLM" if in the fight they let do all the work to others and just stay put and fire

I call a "top BLM" the one able to deal with the fight and do his share and make that work affect the less possibile his DPS. He/She will have less DPS then scarecrow BLM? Sure but it's effectiveness in the fight and in the party is miles ahead of scarecrows BLM

Sure, why put a BLM doing the "homing missile" job or kiter in t7 job? Some jobs are just wrong for BLM but many others can be done without much problems

No you don't get my point. Even the best blm in the world will never be able to do the same dps in titan ex as say T8 because while a great blm can mitigate much of the movement problems, they will never be able to do so perfectly. So in instances where a raid can allow a blm to not move, it is in their best interests to do so if they want to maximize dps. In fact, I would go so far to say that a great blm will realize that they should not move unless they absoluitely need to and in circumstances like not stacking for plumes in titan, they should certainly do so. But in the process of doing so, it makes their job inherently easier to play.

That is what I meant when I said that top blms will recognize when they absolutely need to move and when they can cut corners. Why would you want to move to activate landmines when a summoner can do so at a much lesser cost to his dps? Sure, if you want to move to prove that you can move while dpsing, thats great, but a turret blm will always be better than a moving one, and good blms will recognize that.

I know, and if you gave me a perfect party with player that can do all the jobs flawlessly even if you give them all the work i'd agree with you. I'm not in such group. First we don't have a summoner. Second if i say "i stay still to di little more dps, you do all the work" they kick me. 3 we are 2 BLM so... It'a hard do all the work leaving 2 BLM jobless. 4 i do some jobs better then others so i think it'a better do little less dps and don't whipe.
A BLM that do 380dps and stay still help to win the fight way less then one that di 378 easing up job distribution

So again, scarecorow's BLM are a worse resource than good BLM that are way more useful to win the fight
