DPS best practices

Bliz 2 and Freeze do not exist on any self-respecting BLM hot bar outside of possibly leveling (and even then just remove Freeze)

PvP.

My mentality is that all your spells deserve a space on your hotbars; you will find uses for them if you go looking for them. Similarly, I can't state enough how good lethargy can be in certain situations.

See I never think to include PVP discussions into these conversations >< And I have a PVP hotbar. Freeze is in it, B2 is not. I don't believe I made a comment about Lethargy at all, it's still on my single target hotbar, but I can't remember the last time it actually did anything.

I am the same way too. Whether you PvP or not (personally I do as well), I think it's good on principle to have a holistic knowledge of your entire toolkit no matter how 'situational' some abilities might be. It makes you a more balanced player instead of someone with a very narrow skillset. If you only how to turret out a memorized rotation in a boss fight, for example, you'll suffer when something throws you a curve ball or you have to think critically and improvise.

I've never come across a bad player with that mentality, because if you understand your entire toolkit, then it goes without saying that understanding the subset of it that applies to raiding, or roulette dungeons and so on is even easier.
