BLM DPS!!!

Holding on to procs until the end of your rotation is frankly crazy talk

BLM is my 3rd Class, and actually i try to get some 120/130 Gear.

But i'm not sure which 2nd Stats I should focus now.
I read that i raise my dps with spellspeed (cause endless mp), but i just can't believe that this is the only thing to go for
How much crit do you actually prefer? about 500? 550? Does it matter at all?
How much do determination improve dps, is it worth to go for?

Stat weights currently are SS>Det>Crit, but in all honesty, BLM is really the only class that all secondary stats are pretty even. You could really go with any build and be in good shape. So really the only advice I would give is just make sure your accuracy isn't too high. If its your 3rd class, then you probably aren't running coil with it, so put as little accuracy on your gear as possible and you'll be set. The secondary stat weights are all right around .25 so go with whatever build your prefer.

OK thanks @all
Nahh I'm like a wild card in our group cause of multiple classes, the class should be Coil-Ready, thats why i need this acc.
Hmm ok than it's fine, dps is atm enough for fcob 1-3, and i can try to increase it step by step.

I dont understand what some of that BLM spreadsheet means. Like what is T1 and F5? What does that mean?

[Maero]

I have not looked at the sheets but assuming T1> thunder 1 and F5> 5 stacks of fire?

F5 = cast Fire 1 five times. So the F5 T1 = U cast Fire I 5 times in your Astral Fire phase, then you cast Blizz III and cast Thunder I in your Umbral Ice phase.

And by the time that is done, depending on your spellspeed, you should be topped up by the time your next FIII is done casting putting you back in Astral Fire for a fresh set of five fires....rinse repeat lol.

Hello!
I'm posting for the first time on this forum after having read you guys for a long time now.
Actually I wanted to ask a question about my build http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/PO4R
My DPS in T9 is only around 300 DPS and I would appreciate your advice on how I could improve it.

My goal is to boost my DPS for T9 and the upcoming FCoB.

Thanks in advance.

I know that is what i mean't just did not explain it, lol

That makes alot sense, haven't thought of it that way. And yeah, thundercloud has really low rate ( and loses on dmg vs fire III if I remember right), thanks for clearing that one out!

Specifically, you have a a 0.475% chance with two ticks or 0.25% chance with one tick of the dot to waste a Thundercloud proc compared to a 16% chance of wasting a Firestarter proc.
