That's not actually true. Now at first I was pretty much disgusted by what happened to BLM in 3.0, but I've been playing non-stop for the last week and I must say officially that BLM is currently in a decent spot. Sure, adjustments will be made. If it was me, I'd probably make two minor adjustments. I'd extend Astral Fire to 13 seconds instead of 10. This would allow us a little more freedom to move out of an aoe without completely losing a GCD. And Second, I'd probably shorten the Blizz IV Cast time to 2 seconds.These are very minor and wouldn't change anything with our 3.0 rotation. The job would still play as SE intended, only it would allow us a little more freedom with movement.

Now with that being said, I'm currently i170 and averaging between 800 and 900 DPS on every single boss fight in the level 60 dungeons and 1100 on dummies. You just have to practice and learn the most effective way to utilize every single tool you have been given. AM, Swiftcast, Sharpcast, Manaward, Manawall all are vital. When you cast Ley Lines, immediately move to the very edge of the circle. If you're targeted by an aoe under your feet, 90% of the time you'll still have room in your Ley Lines to move to the other edge. If a mechanic forces your enochian to fall off before expected, immediately switch to 2.0 rotation and don't panic. I'm still hitting Fire 1 crits for 3.1k and Firestarter crits for 4.3k. If you don't freak out when something causes your rotation to get screwed up and can make the transition smoothly, you can still maintain high dps until your enochian is ready.

I've not yet seen a single DPS out parse me in a dungeon. Granted, I'm not saying they can't and I've slightly out geared the ones who have come close. My only point is its not "The Sky is Falling" for BLM right now. At first I was annoyed, but I dusted it off and told myself its time to get good. Sure, some won't have any desire to dedicate the time to adjust to this new playstyle. I'm only saying its possible
