A Flare For the Dramatic

[Kabooa]

MAX ETHER POTIONS, BABY!

(So probably, like, 1100 MP HQ or something, BUT THE TRIPLE FLARE IS BACK)

Triple Flare, premium prices for... still not quite the burst dps of DRG or SMN?

Remember these are still 1 potion per synth, and as far as we can tell, the mats are going to be gathered on Diadem... so expect the prices to be very steep, especially if you need max melds on the regular lvl 60 HQ crafting gear to have a decent chance to HQ them.

If only Flare was still good.

Flare is still good. Double flare actually bursts harder than death flare, and flare by itself does more damage than deathflare on 1-3 targets. deathflare pulls ahead at target 4. This is including dreadwyrm trance and enochian in the calculations.

DRG burst on 5-8 mobs can't come close to BLM. SMN can burst AoE, but triple Flare would put BLM close.

They said you can gather the stuff with level ~57 gear, and I expect a few people to be doing exploratory missions. They will also likely drop from chests in dungeons/maps/diadem.
