    well right now, out of all the classes, blm is the one being the most affected by movement by far.
    even 3.0 bard isnt even close to 3.0 blm in term of punishment.
    A blm lose/risk losing
    A 3 second cast
    Enochian
    Astral fire
    Leyline
    while bard lose...... a cast

    smh at bards suddenly realizing what casters have to deal with since the dawn of time. Serves you right, you know.
    Except for one fact: First of all, WM is useless in an actual fight anyway and if it comes to pure numbers, yes, we lose a cast, but if we lose that one, it lowers the overall low amount of damage we are doing anyway, while casters can make up with formidable dots or high potency numbers.

    That is not how any of that works.

    1. Last I checked bard had dots too. Also, dots are not a majority of any caster's main source of damage. Yes, even SMN has a lot of their damage from other sources.
    2. What do you think happens when a caster loses a cast? They magically get damage back?
    3. 1.5 second cast times are a joke.
    4. "WM is a minor upgrade for high risk". Well casting is "the same dps you always dealt, with double the cast times, yay". Casters don't even have a fallback like bards do.
