Spellcasting in PvP

[Dimitrii]

Raging Strikes (off global cooldown) > Fire III (1st gcd) > Fire I (2nd gcd) > Firestarter proc insta fire III > Fire I (3rd gcd) > Firestarter proc insta fire III > target roasted.

Dead in 3 gcd (and even without raging strikes this amount of incoming dmg will likely kill anyone short of a tank)

Can repeat as many times as firestarter proc occurs (which at 40% activation rate is high) with no notable recast time whatsoever unlike the burst the other dps perform. Show me another dps that can potentially perform this type of devastation on successive targets.

My point is not that blm's can do this now cause obviously they cannot. My point is that there is a reason why you are unable to freecast. Firestarter would make you overpowered. So yeah if you wanna cast freely maybe SE can accommodate you so that attacks no longer interrupt you thats fine. Just dont expect to retain your current attack potency cause you will not. You will end up sacrificing one aspect of the job for another. If that tradeoff is fine with you and allows you to enjoy the job better then there is no reason to continue to debate. More power to you and I hope SE takes note of your request. My only problem stems from people asking for changes to a job without considering the consequences those changes would entail should every other aspect of the job remain untouched.

Edit: the "target stays in front conal" aspect of your argument I dont even see the point in. Every job has this restriction in some form whether it be healers and casters needing to have target in LOS, or melees and tanks needing target to be within range of them.
