How is BLM in new expansion?

[seekified]

Oh...u have played a lvl 60 blm?^^
If u say the BLM is like MNK an DRG now ... pls don't forget the 2.3 sec Cast Time to refresh your 10 sec buff

But since i can't compare those classes, maybe they have also something like cast times to refresh their buffs...

I haven't, but my best friend is a BLM and we've discussed things at length and I've read up enough on the intricacies on the job to at least have an opinon, even if I obviously haven't tested things myself.

I don't mean to be rude here, but historically many BLMs come across as lazy and adverse to challenges. They also tend to be the ones who rarely bother to level another job. Call me judging, but that's my two cents.
