How is BLM in new expansion?

[seekified]

Blm is no longer fun in my opinion, and it seems to have become more of a chore to play than anything. In fights with a lot of dodge mechanics, odds are you will be last in DPS unless there is another BLM who is worse than you, a BRD, or another DPS that is just really bad at their job. BLM is way too punishing, and it feels awful when a tornado spawns on you, you lose your whole enochian rotation and you have low mana, and then you look up to see everyone still doing dps. These people who are saying it is a more rewarding experience and punishes those who can't perform their jobs are honestly just in denial or think themselves to be so elite, that they can still out dps anyone with their blm - but the numbers just don't add up. They need to: A) Make Ley Lines bigger or just give us a non-stationary SS buff, B) Increase the duration of AF and UI, and C) If we cast Blizzard 4 while enochian is on, it should go off regardless of whether or not we lose it during the cast.

The way BLM is now is how MNK has always been to some extent and how DRG was before 2.45 and now is once again with the new buff to keep up with positionals. Playing BLM to an acceptable level was easy before - adding a bit of complexity to bring it up to par with other jobs in terms of effort/reward is not a bad thing. They've done the same with BRD and they're crying out that their job's been ruined as well simply because it's harder now. You still put out 1100 DPS sustained on dummy and probably about 800 in actual fights, which is exactly what I'm doing as DRG.
