[Theorycraft] BLM Openers

[OneWingedSora]

Sucks that Lalafell Dunefolk are the best BLM race for Int and Pie xD

I badly want the stats, but no way would I play a lala to get them! ;P

Good thing it's Lalas that have the stat boosts. You should be thankful it isn't Roes that have them.

Tbh, I think I'd rather play a roe... xD

But it's a close call on what is worse (imo!) ^^

You are so rude.

[scarebearz]

You are so rude.

Indeed! ^^

Shame you can't pick a race for stats and glamour over it to look like whatever race you like, but would kinda defeat of object of race traits....

Wildwood Elezens are the better race statwise. Just stick 1 PIE on your relic in place of a spell speed. You've basically just traded +2 spell speed for +1 INT. Totally worth it. And you don't have to be a potato! <_<

(Note that I said you're trading 2 SS for 1 INT because reducing a stat from 44 to 43 at the Novus stage makes you lose a bonus point at the Zodiac stage. Not sure where the cutoffs are for Zeta yet... Still, even trading 3 SS for 1 INT is worth it.)

Haha. It always depends. People consider Lalas potatoes while Elezen are long neck giraffes to me. But yeah, you definitely can balance the piety with off-stats with the relic.

Race advantage there :3 Cat people are cute and all but they have lower int and piety.

yes.. Cats are cute and dumb, low intelligent
That's why ppl prefers dogs

Anyway I still can't get over 920 opener DPS (B3 opener) even with godlike procs and well-timed random MP regen to full after T1.
My party's NIN has a weird opening. His TA lands in my 2nd astral phase. D:

That's... questionable. Most ninjas in Gilgamesh I questioned all told me they do TA after 4th GCD. That 10% there is was prevents you from breaking 1k+ burst.

Seems like that xD
I have a question : Does dunesfolks always have enough MP to flare in your B3 opener?
My only options are stick with T2 opener to guarantee the flare, or gamble on the MP regen ticks with B3 opener, or change to dunesfolk LOL
