Forget about the Infinite Flare, that was lame anyways.

But I really would appreciate when the Mana Tic would come randomly, and not the "most time to waste and let the BLM stand around like a dick"

I really hate it in A2S where Flare comes at least somewhat handy (despite the nerf) but I tend to stick more to Single Target and let the SMN AoEing more, as often I Transpose after a Flare and wait a felt 6 seconds until I get some Mana to do something, mostly resulting in wearing of Enochian.

The delays switching AF/UI and enabling F4/B4 somewhat can be accepted, but the Mana Tic is really breaking all the fluid in the AoE - rotation.

Hope this gets better on lower latency, atm, I feel quite in disadvantage.
