    Oh God, please don't tell me you're going to use a nerfed flare in Umbral mode. And you want to infinitely do it? I know the game is Full Casual Mode and it is impossible to fail but... You're choosing to do this?

    I saw a mage cast Fire 3/Ice 3/Fire 3 because he said the cast times were faster, he never ran out of mana and it was more damage. I thought he was a unique one. Then I saw this thread.

    1) I was kidding. 2) He sounds like one of those people who takes off all their old attacks from the hotbar when he gets a new version of them

    Eh..no. It's always ONLY going to be Bliz 3 > Fire 3 > Fire I/IV, ONLY using Fire III from Firestarter. Never freaking Bliz 3 > Fire 3 > Bliz 3..jesus that's easily going to be the crappiest dps rotation ever. And doing Fire 3 > Bliz 3 > Fire 3 is no better. Bliz 3 serves two purposes; 1. MP restoration. 2. Setup for quick transition into Astral Fire III. The aim is to have full MP for all Fire 1s/Fire IV's. Never for Fire III.

    There used to be a thing you could do to still have mp if you timed it right. flare puts you in af3. So before they patched the ui tic you could essentially replace fire3 with flare in your aoe rotation. Either way you are casting something from ui.

    Maybe I'm not explaining it well, but you can look up "ffxiv infinite flare" on google or youtube. It was really strong.

    Given that SE decided it was an exploit and patched it, I doubt it will be coming back, but what you're saying is not remotely close to what op is asking for.
