How often are you getting hit with freeze or blizzard II in PvP? Freeze is just a monkey wrech spell, biggest use is to set up a LB, not an actual survival spell. Blizzard II is 80% of a GCD, good luck getting that off while being hit, and goodbye to AF if you do. Sleep isn't going off without swift cast, and resistance builds real fast. And Manaward, to protect you from all the magic damage being dealt out by... Aetherial Manipulation, really? Surecast is about as useful as Truth of Forests in PvP.

Could you please take a moment to list all the cc abilities BLM has access to for PvP? Raging Strikes, Virus, Physick, those are pretty much everything but stun or knockback? Eye for an Eye is the only honorable mention, the rest are quelling strikes, hawk's eye, ruin, and DoL abilities.
