Let's talk about Sharpcast.

[Ayuhra]

Well I never use swiftcast to actually open a fight, that's what precasting is for. But wouldn't it be a DPS loss to sharpcast Fire 1 and then open with F3 instead of just hard casting F3 and following up with Fire 1? The latter is nearly a 50 increase in potency versus sharpcasting F1 > Firestarter. It only takes you about .46 seconds more of total time to get that 50 increase in potency which I find to be worth it. But I guess if you're anticipating casting interruptions, it could be useful.

First: I am still figuring out lvl 60 BLM

Okay that's out of the way.

I've been using Sharpcast regularly on opening to put me directly into AS III for Enochian. Pretty much any time I NEED AS III I use it. I wish I didn't need it, though, the lvl 60 rotation is mind boggling strict on timing. I wish it flowed better.
