The whole reason Fire4 works as it does is to remove the RNG factor, or at least most of it, that gated hitting optimal numbers in Black Mage 2.0. As it stands right now, the only spell you may have trouble fitting into a rotation is Thunder/Thundercloud.

Outside influences like floor-death-zones have small work arounds, but nothing is new to black mages there.

Personally? I'd trade the AoE sleep trait for a 30s Swiftcast trait, or even 45s, seeing as Square has been so nice to basically make sleep obsolete outside solo-save-your-ass-play.
