BLM AoE Rotation

[Zeny]

1. What would be the aoe rotation for a quick mob with just flares? Is it>

2. Also, can anyone answer me what you would do if you get a thundercloud proc right after you hardcasted t1 in umbral 3? Just use it?

3. And...>.< When they talk about fire weaving, do they mean for your last f1..you do f1>offgcd>f1>b3?

4. if you get a thundercloud proc right before or close to having to go into umbral3, do you use it before you go into umbral and still hardcast t1, or just continue with a b1 after b3 if you need it for tic and use the proc in umbral?

1: For "quick" mob pulls, or a short life span expectancy, there's no "just flares" really. I don't actually use any cooldowns. F3 > F2 x3 > Flare > Transpose. They should be dead if they have low enough hp. If not, F3 after the Transpose into F2 x2 and flare again if necessary.

2: Depends on the tick. If you have already 1/2 mana after your t1 cast (1 tick) you should be able to hold onto that thundercloud until after your first fireball. Ideally try and save it for a fireweave, but honesty I would probably just lob a thunder 3 out right after the t1 in Umbral Ice 3.

3: F3 > F1 x5 > OGCD and check to see if you got the proc. So no what you stated is not the ideal scenario.

4: If you get a thundercloud on your final fire 1, prior to casting blizzard 3, use it to fireweave. If you get it as you are casting blizzard 3, or during your fireweave check, use it after your blizzard 3 and cast blizzard 1 to fill in if necessary. I wouldn't recast any thunders in that situation personally.
