BLM AoE Rotation

Yeah, when convert and ethers are down its a straight forward sort of thing.

F3->F2-F2-F2->Swiftcast->Flare->Tranpose->Mash button for F3->F2->F2->Flare->Tranpose............rinse and repeat.

this totally.. never fails, but yeah sometimes after tranpose you have to keep mashing fire 3 because the mana tick is slow, other times its instant. blind luck on it,

if your mp isn't high enough you'll have to drop a 2nd f2 from the second set or even if you know there's a good chance you wont get flare off if you hit another fire 2.

Another voice to add to the chanting:
F3, F2 till low, Swiftcast, Flare, Convert, F2 (if you have a scholar and high enough piety, if not skip this), Flare, Ether of some sort, Flare if available.

Generally just

F3, F2 as much as you can (again as folks have said, 1 or 2 times usually), Flare, Transpose then get back to mashing the Fire III button

Its really inelegant and that down time waiting for the first mp tick before casting Fire III again goes against everything you've been taught as a caster dps (always be casting) but it really is the best way.

I like to hard cast the first flare and swiftcast the second. If you swiftcast the first, sometimes your target mob dies before you can get the second flare out, your cast gets interrupted, and you have to start over. If that happens on the second flare using swiftcast, you can immediately switch to a live target and get the flare casted immediately. .

Yes, great advice.

For first rotation (all CDs) I do this:

F3 > Quelling Strikes+ F2x3 > Raging Strikes + Flare > Convert > F2 > Swiftcast + Flare > Mega Ether HQ > Flare

Transpose > F3 > F2 > Flare > Repeat

Usually after the triple flare mobs are dead though, heh.

For some reason, I never thought to throw a F2 in right after Convert. Good stuff.

Only works if you have 251(?) piety.

250 is the minimum.

That's actually a very good point, listen to that.

isn't it still better to swiftcast your first flare? As you stated, mob dies before you can get the second flare out, that's a good thing. It means they actually die faster lol
