    I don't play BLM in FL so this is more of a question & my interpretation of things than an argument or steadfast opinion- a BLM who's able to hardcast a flare, say under Equanimity/Surecast, under Umbral 3/Raging Strikes, and then followed up with Convert/Swiftcast/Flare again still gets a majorly strong Flare followed by half potency Flare, esp if raging strikes/foe requiem/battle voice is up, could still wipe out members of another party right? Especially now that regen stacking isn't going to be happening.

    Convert would be riskier in PVP, but an AOE attack this powerful that can turn the tide of an individual conflict doesn't seem like ithe kind of move that's meant to be pulled off all the time, it's a calculated high risk/reward attack sequence that a party with a bit of coordination between players could pull off.

    That said, if ranged auto-attacks (Bard mainly) had a reduced chance of interrupt on casts that would be more balanced than having them serve as auto-silences. DPS in PVE is already balanced between classes with Instant attacks vs casts, they made a few potency adjustments after coil 2 because that was no longer the case due to BLM's impacted by dodging... so if that makes DPS balanced between classes in PVE, adding a high rate of interrupt in PVP that impacts casters only seems to me to have a negative, imbalanced impact on them.
