F3 > Raging Strikes > F2x3> Flare > Convert > Swiftcast > Flare > Max-Ether > Flare > Transpose. Do that, and then go into F3 > F2x2 > Flare > Transpose > Repeat. And that's your AoE.

I also suggest doing this on 1st or second pull at the beginning and after boss fight, so you'll have RS and Convert ready for the boss.
Got it - terrific answer, thanks.

Where do you guys feel that BLMs stand these days, compared to summoners? SMN was fairly bad in 2.x, but now it seems they've taken the AoE crown, which obviously was what BLMs used to be all about. The double/triple flare is still pretty monstrous AoE damage though, and I'm guessing someone who has mastered Enochian can really lay down the single-target damage. Thoughts?
