My only problem is the nerf with its dps (without the mana glitch), since those numbers are fine. I would love the suggestion from Vexander if the casters in the group could also find the Embolden buff useful.
I really think BLM should have the caster version of Embolden. That gives it enough DPS utility to match RDM. After that, bolster Fire IV and Blizzard IV's potencies back to what they were, add another 3 seconds to Umbral Ice and Astral Fire, and BLM should be perfect.

As for Summoner, I'm not really practiced with it so I do not know what it really needs, but giving it back its AOE damage by providing it with a third dot seems like something -needed-. After that, I'm not quite so certain. I feel like Summoner needs a good bit more attention, whereas BLM's fixes are fairly straightforward.

Honestly, this is what made me go RDM as well. I've done BLM since the final patch of ARR, I was so ready for something new. The freedom of movement and Dualcast providing quick bursts of damage make the class fun. Having a high DPS output potential just makes it all the better.
