BLM: Should I change my rotation?

[Nanaho]

OP Snip

It depends, as an opening rotation, you can start with Thunder 1, and use that as you need to reapply it, the biggest advantage to Thunder is the Thundercloud proc, which on a Thunder 3, for myself does 1700 Damage on a Crit hit, on top of doing the normal 3 second tics, so it adds up to a lot of damage. if you dont get another thundercloud proc, you can just cast a thunder 1, which is minimal MP and Time spent casting and you can get back into your DPS rotation.

I personally like this thought process because I don't main my BLM in high end raiding like FcOB, So people doing that may have something else to say about it.

Hope this Helps ^^ And I'm prepared for being possibly Flamed by all the 1337 BRM's. Have a good one!
