Spellcasting in PvP

[Slib]

blm burst is too powerful to not be interrupted. if blm's could just stand there freecasting there wouldnt be a point in playing for other dps even with the flare nerf. If somone is a brd/nin/mnk and they are assigned to stop the blm from harrassing their team they should be able to do so. as a blm you have to adapt to their tactic. name another dps class that can have a 1 over their head, 4+ dps coming at them, and live. name another dps that for any reason would ever have a 1 over their head.

What? When I play Bard, I notice my burst is a lot better than black mages (with cooldowns up) and weaving in the extra shots. Hell, even Dragoon with pvp abilities could out burst a BLM straight up. The only thing BLM has going for it is it doesn't rely on cooldowns as much as other classes to blow someone up...but instead they rely on procs.

Edit: The swiftcast nerf really messed with black mages control of burst outside of procs. Procs do make their burst nice, but they require setup and are never guaranteed.
